Bulls Say, Bears Say
Bulls Say
Hardware GrowthThe +39% Y/Y growth in hardware was the highlight of the quarter, driven more by secular trends like hybrid cloud/regulation/AI vs. tech refresh.
Revenue GrowthFourth-quarter revenue guidance was slightly ahead of consensus, providing strong EPS upside.
Software RevenueSoftware revenue growth of 16% benefited from good subscription renewal momentum, with F5’s fully managed offering continuing to see strong cross-sell momentum for its API management and bot security modules.
Bears Say
Growth DriversThe outsized 39% systems growth last quarter is not sustainable, driven mostly by easy comps and End of Service for VIPRION and iSeries appliances.
Growth SustainabilityThere are persistent questions about the sustainability of mid- to high-single-digit growth going into fiscal 2026.
Stock ValuationThe stock is trading at a ~19x forward P/E multiple, above the Company’s historical 15x average, and any mis-execution could drive the stock down to its mid-cycle level.
