Qualys Hold Rating: Steady Demand Amidst Competitive Challenges and Market Valuation Contraction

Analyst Shaul Eyal of TD Cowen maintained a Hold rating on Qualys (QLYSResearch Report), reducing the price target to $135.00.

Confident Investing Starts Here:

Shaul Eyal has given his Hold rating due to a combination of factors impacting Qualys. The company is expected to deliver results in line with market expectations for the first quarter of 2025, driven by steady demand in the cybersecurity sector. However, the competitive landscape is becoming more challenging as new players enter the vulnerability management space, which could impact Qualys’s growth prospects.
Despite efforts to enhance partner-driven logo acquisition and platform expansion, the overall market valuation contraction has led to a reduced price target for the stock, now set at $135. Additionally, the company’s guidance for 2025 does not indicate significant improvement, with modest trends in new bookings and earnings projections. These factors contribute to the Hold rating, reflecting a cautious outlook amidst a competitive and evolving market environment.

In another report released on March 31, Jefferies also maintained a Hold rating on the stock with a $130.00 price target.
