Jason Ader has given his Buy rating due to a combination of factors that highlight Nutanix’s potential for growth and market positioning. Despite the need to lower expectations for fiscal 2026 and 2027, Ader remains optimistic about Nutanix’s ability to capture market share, particularly in the wake of Broadcom’s acquisition of VMware. This acquisition presents a favorable competitive environment for Nutanix, which is expected to drive sustainable mid-teens growth in the top line.
Moreover, Nutanix’s expanding product portfolio, which includes innovations in container management and external storage integrations, positions the company well for long-term gains in the hybrid cloud infrastructure market. Although there are challenges such as a decelerating customer renewal pool and uncertainties in the U.S. federal sector, the company’s valuation remains attractive. Nutanix’s enterprise-value-to-sales and enterprise-value-to-free-cash-flow multiples are competitive compared to peers, suggesting a favorable risk/reward scenario with strong cash flow and profit expansion potential.
In another report released yesterday, Morgan Stanley also maintained a Buy rating on the stock with a $90.00 price target.
Based on the recent corporate insider activity of 43 insiders, corporate insider sentiment is negative on the stock. This means that over the past quarter there has been an increase of insiders selling their shares of NTNX in relation to earlier this year.
