Elizabeth Porter’s rating is based on Figma Inc.’s strong market position and innovative product design platform, which facilitates collaboration across various stakeholders in the design process. The company’s ability to expand its user base beyond UX designers to include developers, marketers, and product managers demonstrates its potential for growth. However, despite its impressive revenue growth and operating margin, the stock’s valuation at over 35 times sales suggests that the risk and reward are balanced, leading to a Hold rating.
Figma’s dominance in the design market and its potential to benefit from advancements in generative AI are acknowledged, yet the competitive landscape for AI prototyping tools presents challenges. The company’s unique business model has driven significant growth, but the forecasted deceleration in growth rates indicates a more conservative outlook. As a result, while Figma’s business fundamentals are strong, the current valuation reflects much of this optimism, justifying the Hold recommendation.
In another report released today, J.P. Morgan also initiated coverage with a Hold rating on the stock with a $65.00 price target.
