Raymond James analyst… Raymond James analyst Brian Peterson initiated coverage of Qualtrics with an Outperform rating and $55 price target.

He sees a number of secular tailwinds driving increased adoption for experienced management, suggesting that the broader category could see a factor level increase in spend longer-term. |
Canaccord analyst David… Canaccord analyst David Hynes initiated coverage of Qualtrics with a Buy rating and $54 price target.

He believes they are the furthest along in delivering and end to end experience for collecting experience data. | |
Loop Capital analyst Yun… Loop Capital analyst Yun Kim initiated coverage of Qualtrics with a Hold rating and $45 price target. The company is "well positioned" to fully capture the emerging experience management market opportunity which is currently "highly fragmented" and "significantly underpenetrated", but at 29- and 24-times expected 2021 and 2022 sales, the stock "fairly" values its near-term opportunity, the analyst tells investors in a research note. | |
JPMorgan analyst Mark… JPMorgan analyst Mark Murphy initiated coverage of Qualtrics with an Overweight rating and $55 price target. Qualtrics pioneered the experience management space and is now the company leading it with the most forward leaning vision and fastest pace of innovation, per customers, Murphy tells investors in a research note. He believes secular trends such as digital transformation, "solid" revenue growth at scale and an efficient business model makes Qualtrics an "exceptional asset among software companies." | |
Truist analyst Terry… Truist analyst Terry Tillman initiated coverage of Qualtrics with a Buy rating and $60 price target. The analyst is positive on the company as a category leader in the experience management, or XM, software market, with a "constructive" view on its "large" total addressable market for XM evolving into a "strategic, large enterprise spend category". Tillman adds that Qualtrics is well positioned to achieve attractive "long-term compounding growth" thanks to its differentiated platform, strong sales execution, and numerous call options for upside. | |
JMP Securities analyst… JMP Securities analyst Patrick Walravens initiated coverage of Qualtrics (XM) with an Outperform rating and $55 price target.

Walravens adds that Qualtrics has an "attractive" financial profile with expected 29% revenue growth in 2020 and a relationship with SAP (SAP) that offers a "strong entry point" into its large customer base. |
