This stock is High Risk based upon our quantitative model but assigning a High Risk rating is not supported by other qualitative factors such as the staying power of its business model, so a High Risk rating has not been applied.
Risks that could drive the stock below our target price include: 1) Volatility of a consumption model, especially through a market downturn; 2) Competitive pressure from the cloud infrastructure providers; 3) Uptake of adjacent products are slower than expected, thus lower cross/up-sell opportunities; and 4) TAM of Cloud Data Platform and Data Cloud deterioration from pressure of new disruptive technology/specialized vendors.
