It believes the company will likely meet "muted" fiscal Q1 expectations amid a "tenuous backdrop" for software-as-a-service. Deutsche's field conversations leave it expecting less upside to Salesforce's key metrics relative to recent quarters. The earnings report is unlikely to bring meaningful estimate revisions which "is required to sway sentiment and catalyze the stock," the analyst said. The firm has a Buy rating on the shares with a $255 price target.Meanwhile, BofA reinstated coverage of Salesforce with an Underperform rating and $160 price target. Salesforce remains "a deeply entrenched platform," but the firm expects a structural reset driven by AI transition, the analyst said. This raises three core concerns, namely muted net new customer additions, limited upsell potential, and an "underwhelming" AI monetization pathway, the analyst added.Citi lowered the firm's price target on Salesforce to $188 from $200 and kept a Neutral rating on the shares ahead of the Q1 report. Citi reduced its fiscal 2027 estimates towards the low end of Salesforce's outlook after its fieldwork indicated lengthening deal cycles and greater portfolio optimization at renewals.
