Oppenheimer analyst Ittai Kidron maintained a Buy rating on MongoDB Inc (MDB) yesterday and set a price target of $90. The company’s shares closed yesterday at $86.62, close to its 52-week high of $93.23.
Kidron noted:
“AWS announced DocumentDB, a MongoDB-compatible database designed to give users performance, scalability, and availability when operating mission-critical MongoDB workloads at scale. AWS is emulating MongoDB’s code using APIs (not using MongoDB code and not addressing v4.0 which implemented SSPL licensing and ACID capabilities). While the development is negative and adds to compeitive pressures, we see positives. First, AWS’ move and investment validate MongoDB’s growing popularity and market opportunity. Second, AWS’ emulation and rapid- follower approach is likely to offer MongoDB a permanent feature advantage. Last, MongoDB still maintains its cloud-independent value proposition. We hope to learn more about DocumentDB’s performance/scale claims and whether AWS’ approach opens up IP conflicts. We maintain Outperform.”
