Goldman Sachs analyst Adam Hotchkiss downgraded E2open Parent Holdings (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ETWO#NYSE">ETWO</a>) from Neutral to Sell and lowered the <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/ETWO/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">price target from&nbsp;$3.5&nbsp;to&nbsp;$2.9</a>. The stock fell.
Despite year-to-date stock underperformance, Hotchkiss noted that the lack of visibility into an organic growth turnaround, execution risk as the company works to refine its organic sales engine further, and the company&#8217;s floating-rate leverage overhang will likely weigh on E2open Parent shares over the next 12 months.
As a business that has historically relied on acquired assets to support growth, E2open Parent&#8217;s elevated leverage in a high-interest rate environment is limiting the company&#8217;s ability to pay down debt to meet its leverage targets.
This cycle further limits the company&#8217;s ability to invest in growth initiatives (including acquisitions).

In addition, with the company roughly doubling in size through acquired assets over the last 4 years, the amount of new ARR required to accelerate growth materially has subsequently doubled, driving an increased burden on cross-selling (particularly in an environment where new logo acquisition has slowed) to reaccelerate growth.
Absent further acquisitions and with further maturation of E2open Parent&#8217;s organic sales structure needed, Hotchkiss sought more clarity on the company&#8217;s ability to reaccelerate growth beyond low single digits over the near-to-medium term.
E2open Parent&#8217;s valuation is undemanding, but Hotchkiss noted that a rerating higher is unlikely absent an improvement in fundamentals, particularly given the multiple trough levels seen from peer-challenged growth software comps like Dropbox Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DBX#NASDAQ">DBX</a>), RingCentral Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RNG#NYSE">RNG</a>), and SolarWinds Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SWI#NYSE">SWI</a>).
While Hotchkiss agreed with management&#8217;s stated goals to pay down debt and focus on organic growth, he awaited evidence of progress toward these goals in a time of slowing organic growth relative to peers before considering turning more positive on E2open Parent stock.
With four consecutive quarters of declines in subscription revenue growth and lowered fiscal 2025 guidance, Hotchkiss noted it is prudent to be incrementally cautious around shares of E2open Parent despite the company trading near trough levels.
E2open Parents rapid conglomeration of assets and associated teams over the years has significantly increased the level of net new ARR needed to match historical growth levels on an organic basis, and meeting these levels of net new ARR at a time when larger transformation projects are increasingly being deferred (creating pressure on new logo growth) will likely remain a challenge for the company over at least the next 12-months.
Hotchkiss projected third-quarter revenue of $151.7 million and adjusted EPS of $0.04.
Price Action: ETWO stock is down 3.51% at $3.02 at last check Wednesday.

SolarWinds (SWI) beat analysts' estimates on the top and bottom lines in the third quarter of 2024. The introduction of innovative product offerings, strategic initiatives, and robust financial performance support the company's continued growth. So, let's determine whether SolarWinds Corporation is an ideal addition to your portfolio. Read more to find out... SolarWinds Corporation (<a href="https://stocknews.com/stock/SWI/">SWI</a>), a leading provider of simple, powerful, secure observability and IT management software, reported solid third-quarter financial results for fiscal 2024. The company reported a record quarterly revenue of $200.03 million, surpassing analysts' estimate of $194.03 million. Also, its EPS of $0.27 exceeded the analysts' expectation of $0.25.
In the business software segment, SWI continues to maintain its competitive edge with innovative solutions, targeting specific customer requirements and spreading awareness of current market dynamics. The company's strong financial standing further reflects improvement in its underlying business.
During the third quarter, SolarWinds received global recognition for its powerful IT management solutions and industry excellence, including The Globee&#xAE; Cybersecurity Awards, the 2024 BIG Innovation Awards, CRN's 2024 Channel Chiefs, and multiple Stevie&#xAE; Awards for innovation. Also, it was named a leader in the 2024 GigaOm Radar Reports for Network and Cloud Observability.
Further, recently, SWI expanded its capabilities across its SolarWinds Observability Self-Hosted and SolarWinds Observability SaaS offerings. It includes expanded cloud monitoring capabilities, new AI and AIOps-driven capabilities, and network device support. The innovation could further expand the company's operations and profitability.
Besides, business needs are changing at a rapid pace. Organizations are increasingly adopting digitalization, encouraging technological advancements in the cloud, and moving to integrate multichannel touchpoints into a single platform, which is driving the business software market.
The business software market is estimated at $720 billion in 2025 and is projected to reach $1.23 trillion by 2030 at a <a href="https://www.mordorintelligence.com/industry-reports/global-business-software-market">CAGR of 11.2%</a>. SolarWinds, operating at the frontline of the segment, stands to capitalize on the industry's propelling trends.
SWI is growing its operations and size through useful products and solutions, as reflected in its financial results and stock performance. Shares of SWI surged 19.3% over the past six months and 20.8% over the past year to close its last trading session at $14.18.

Analysts expect SWI's revenue for the fourth quarter (ended December 2024) to increase 2.4% year-over-year to $202.91 million. The consensus EPS estimate of $0.27 for the same quarter indicates a 13.5% year-over-year improvement. Moreover, SWI has an impressive earnings surprise history, having topped consensus revenue and EPS estimates in each of the trailing four quarters.
For the fiscal year that ended December 2024, the company's revenue is expected to grow 4% year-over-year to $789.41 million. Its EPS is projected to increase 24% year-over-year to $1.09 for the same year.

Moreover, its strategic partnerships with telecom giants like Verizon Communications Inc. (<a href="https://stocknews.com/stock/VZ/">VZ</a>) and AT&amp;T Inc. (<a href="https://stocknews.com/stock/T/">T</a>) provide greater accessibility and industry-specific solutions, bolstering its market presence.
Given RNG's expanding portfolio and growing customer base, is now the right time to invest in RNG shares? Let's look at some factors that could influence RNG's price performance in the near term:
Recent Developments
On December 5, 2024, RNG inaugurated its new state-of-the-art office in Bangalore, India. The expansion strengthens the company's regional presence and positions it to capitalize on India's growing role as a global tech innovation center, potentially boosting operational efficiency and scalability.
In the same month, RNG unveiled the Zendesk Talk Partner Edition for RingEX&#x2122;, an upgrade which integrates advanced voice capabilities and call data directly into Zendesk's customer support platform.

Strong Financials
RNG's total revenue for the fiscal third quarter (ended September 30, 2024) increased 9.1% year-over-year to $608.77 million, largely driven by a 9.7% uptick in subscription revenue. Annualized Exit Monthly Recurring Subscriptions (ARR) increased 9% year-over-year to $2.48 billion.
Its gross profit grew 10.1% from the year-ago value to $428.58 million, while its income from operations came in at $3.29 million compared to a loss of $54.17 million in the previous year.
