BMO Capital Markets: UiPath's quarterly results were broadly in-line with low expectations, Bachman said in a note. This is a positive, after the previous quarter's execution challenges, amid a leadership change, he added.  
The company reported annual recurring revenues of $1.55 billion. This represents 19% year-on-year growth, but a deceleration of 2 points versus the prior quarter, the analyst stated. "We are encouraged by $850M cloud ARR, representing more than half of ARR and growing by 65% y/y, demonstrating PATH's cloud-first strategy is gaining traction," he further wrote.
DA Davidson: UiPath's fiscal second-quarter results "demonstrated early success in the company&#8217;s efforts to refocus on customer centricity," Luria said. The company raised its full-year adjusted operating income guidance from $145 million to $170 million.
"The company is laser-focused on cementing its reputation as the world&#8217;s leader in enabling actions from AI insight," the analyst wrote. UiPath had several enterprise wins and the net retention among its largest accounts remains at around 120%, he added.
JPMorgan: While there are macro uncertainties, overall conditions are stabilizing compared to the previous quarter, Murphy said. Better execution and streamlining efforts helped UiPath "adapt well to the current environment," he added.
The company indicated that "restructuring efforts primarily in its central functions, with a focus on sales operations and enablement, have enhanced efficiency and agility across the organization," the analyst wrote. Management announced "modest" raises to their full-year revenue and ARR guidance and "decent upticks for operating income and FCF guidance," he further stated.
RBC Capital Markets: UiPath showed "signs of stability," following a "sizable guide-down across the board," Hedberg said. Management raised their fiscal 2025 guidance by more than the beat. The company &#8220;continues to work towards its strategic initiatives," he added.
The company continues to focus on "realigning investments to higher ROI areas," adopting a stronger strategy for growth products, and focusing on expanding its channel partner relationships, the analyst stated. "Encouragingly, management highlighted strong early adoption and positive feedback from customers for Autopilot," he further wrote.
KeyBanc Capital Markets: UiPath reported quarterly revenue and operating margin at $316.3 million and 2%. It beat consensus of $303.7 million and 0.9%, respectively. Both gross retention and net retention declined in the quarter to 97% and 115%, from 98% and 118% in the previous quarter.
The company announced another share repurchase program of up to $500 million, the analyst stated. UiPath took its full-year guidance for operating income "meaningfully higher," implying operating margins of 12%, versus the Street estimates of 9.7%, , Celino wrote.
PATH Price Action: Shares of UiPath had declined by 5.34% to $12.06 at the time of publication on Friday.

General

UiPath shares are trading higher after the company reported better-than-expected Q2 financial results and issued FY25 revenue guidance above estimates. Also, the company announced a $500 million expansion of its stock repurchase program.

Needham analyst Scott Berg reiterates UiPath (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PATH#NYSE">PATH</a>) with a Hold.

Needham Reiterates Hold on UiPath

The <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/09/40718185/could-august-jobs-numbers-keep-recession-fears-at-bay-this-time-is-different-analys">non-farm payrolls data is keeping traders on the tenterhook</a> and the index futures point to a negative opening on Friday. The caveat here is the the market mood could quickly pivot to positivity if the job gain comes in line with expectations. Following the data, traders get to hear from two Federal Reserve officials, possibly the last ones ahead of the Sept. 17-18 Federal Open Market Committee Meeting, given the blackout period starts on Saturday. 
The market direction depends on which worries the traders the most &#8211; a slowdown or the rate trajectory. If the job gains grossly disappoint just as its ADP counterpart did, the odds of a 50 basis-point could be in play. But it remains to be seen whether a weak job market would be considered a reason good enough to liquidate risky bets. The CBOE Volatility Index, commonly called the VIX, spiked by over 13%.
On the corporate front, Broadcom Corp.&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AVGO#NASDAQ">AVGO</a>) soft guidance is weighing down on the chipmaker&#8217;s stock and that of its peers as well.

Cues From Last Session:
U.S. stocks went about in a listless manner on Thursday as traders digested a weak ADP private payrolls number, fairly in-line initial jobless claims data and better-than-expected service sector activity readings. After a negative open, the major indices recovered and rose in the morning session. Lingering worries about Friday&#8217;s payroll numbers dragged the market lower yet again and the indices began to move in a lackluster manner before closing mixed. 
Gains in some heavy-weighted tech stocks lifted the Nasdaq to a higher close, as it snapped a two-session losing streak, while the S&amp;P 500 Index finished with a modest loss. The 30-stock Dow Jones Industrial Average and the small-cap Russell 2,000 Index settled moderately lower.
Eight of the 11 S&amp;P 500 sectors finished in the red, with industrial, material healthcare and financial stocks seeing marked weakness. On the other hand, consumer discretionary, communication services and IT stocks found some buying interest.

Insights From Analysts:
After August proved to be a wild month for stocks, September has so far lived up to expectations of being a seasonally weak month, and an analyst cautioned that the near term does not hold out much promise. LPL Financial Chief Technical Strategist Adam Turnquist said the S&amp;P 500&#8217;s recovery has stalled just under its record highs hit in mid-July. 
The index stalled just around its 20- and 50-day simple moving averages. Turnquist noted that there is a price gap at 5,455 and further down, it has support around its August low of 5,119. In the event of a rally August and July highs of 5,648 and 5,667, respectively, will serve as resistances, he added.

&#8220;Momentum indicators have turned bearish, and signs of defensive leadership have begun to emerge, pointing to more volatility ahead,&#8221; Turnquist said, adding that &#8220;breakdowns in longer-duration Treasury yields, crude oil, and copper, along with a simultaneous breakout in gold, provide a warning sign of rising risks to an economic soft landing.&#8221;

<li>The August non-farm payrolls report, due to be released by the Bureau of Labor Statistics at 8:30 a.m. EDT, is widely expected to show that 161,000 jobs were added during the month, an increase from 114,000 jobs added in July.

3 AI Stocks That Could Make You a Fortune

As tech stocks continue to gain momentum, many investors are eyeing opportunities in the sector, especially after the Fed's recent rate cut. If you're looking to capitalize on this trend, budget-friendly stocks like Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE), UiPath (PATH), and N-able (NABL), all trading under $20, could offer significant upside potential. Learn more… Tech stocks have seen a surge in investor interest, especially following the Federal Reserve's recent decision to lower its benchmark interest rate for the first time since 2020. With the tech-heavy Nasdaq up 20% this year, the sector is clearly benefiting from this shift.
Thus, investors looking to tap into this momentum could consider scooping up shares of Hewlett Packard Enterprise Company (<a href="https://stocknews.com/stock/HPE/">HPE</a>), UiPath Inc.

Lower rates enhance the value of future cash flows, leading to higher company valuations and increased investor confidence. As a result, tech companies may seize this moment to raise capital, pursue mergers and acquisitions, or even explore IPOs.
Moreover, the tech sector's growth shows no sign of slowing down, largely due to its ability to innovate and transform industries. From cloud computing to artificial intelligence, these companies are driving global technological advancements.
The global information technology market is projected to be $26.93 trillion by 2032, growing at a <a href="https://businessresearchinsights.com/market-reports/information-technology-it-market-108885">CAGR of 11%</a>. Meanwhile, Gartner Inc. (<a href="https://stocknews.com/stock/IT/">IT</a>) forecasts that worldwide IT spending will increase by 8% this year, <a href="https://www.gartner.com/en/newsroom/press-releases/2024-04-16-gartner-forecast-worldwide-it-spending-to-grow-8-percent-in-2024">hitting $5.06 trillion</a>.

Shares of PATH have declined 4% over the past month to close its last trading session at $12.40.
Let's look at factors that could influence PATH's performance in the upcoming months.
Positive Recent Development
On July 2, PATH announced new features on its platform, which infuse GenAI deeply into the UiPath Business Automation Platform&#x2122; to help businesses achieve greater outcomes with AI and automation. The new features facilitate developers and organizations to build better, faster, and more comprehensive automation.
Robust Financials
PATH's total revenue increased 10.1% year-over-year to $316.25 million during the second quarter that ended July 31, 2024. Its non-GAAP <a href="https://www.investopedia.com/terms/g/grossprofit.asp#:~:text=Gross%20profit%20is%20the%20income,have%20been%20removed%20from%20revenue.">gross profit</a> grew 6.6% from the year-ago value to $263.18 million.
In addition, the company's non-GAAP net income came in at $23.76 million and $0.04 per share for the quarter, respectively. Its non-GAAP adjusted free cash flow increased 25.5% from the year-ago value to $149.78 million.
Also, the company's cash and cash equivalents and total assets stood at $939.31 million and $2.70 billion as of July 31, 2024.
Favorable Analyst Estimates
Analysts expect PATH's revenue for the third quarter (ending October 2024) to increase 6.7% year-over-year to $347.64 million, and its consensus EPS estimate is expected to be $0.07 for the ongoing quarter. Further, the company has maintained an impressive earning surprise history, having surpassed the consensus revenue and EPS estimates in all four trailing quarters.
Additionally, Street expects the company's revenue and EPS for the fiscal year (ending January 2026) to increase 11.5% and 10.5% year-over-year to $1.58 billion and $0.44, respectively.
High Profitability
PATH's trailing-12-month gross profit margin of 84.03% is 69.6% higher than the respective industry average of 49.54%. Its trailing-12-month levered FCF margin of 30.80% is considerably higher than the industry average of 10.36%.
Lower Valuation

Likewise, the stock's forward Price/Book multiple of 3.74 is 14.2% lower than the industry average of 4.36. Also, its forward Price/Cash Flow of 22.14x is lower than the industry average of 22.27x.

유아이패스(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PATH#NYSE">PATH</a>)는 수요일 시장 마감 후 1분기 재무 결과를 보고하고 최고 경영자(CEO) 변경을 발표했다. 이 보고서의 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/05/b39073161/uipath-reports-first-quarter-fiscal-2025-financial-results">세부 내용</a>을 살펴보자. 이 회사는 로보틱 처리 자동화 소프트웨어를 만드는 글로벌 소프트웨어 기업이다.
주요 정보 (The Details): 유아이패스는 분기별 주당 순이익을 13센트로 보고했는데, 이는 애널리스트 컨센서스인 12센트를 8.33% 앞선 것이다.
분기별 매출은 3억 3,500만 달러로 분석가 컨센서스 추정치 3억 3,304만 달러를 넘어섰고, 이는 지난해 같은 기간 매출 2억 8,959만 달러보다 15.68% 증가한 수치이다.

"우리는 2025회계연도 1분기에 ARR이 15억 달러를 넘어섰다는 사실을 보고하게 되어 기쁘게 생각한다. 이는 시장을 선도하는 비즈니스 자동화 플랫폼과 자동화가 디지털 혁신에서 수행하는 전략적 역할에 대한 증거이다"고 유아이패스의 창립자이자 최고 혁신책임자인 다니엘 다인스(Daniel Dines)가 말했다.
