Check Point (CHKP): New Buy Recommendation for This Technology Giant

Cautious Optimism for Check Point Amid Strategic Shifts and Market ChallengesWe attended Vegas where we heard from Check Point’s executive team and spoke with customers and partners. Tone was upbeat as new leadership, GTM changes, and the expanding Infinity Platform better position CHKP to reaccelerate growth. We remain skeptical of their ability to benefit from firewall refresh activity or generate significant upside to estimates near-term, as margins likely face downward pressure from new investments. Our takeaways: (1) CHKP is confident in a return to DD% growth with the current product suite as is. (2) Significant GTM changes are being made to curb growth declines in America and drive share gains in SASE, Email, and ERM. (3) Our conversations with a few U.S. partners revealed modest ongoing frustration with GTM, but all were bullish on CHKP's technology and changes behind the new CEO. Remain Hold.
