“New Relic reported another strong quarter ahead of Street expectations, reflecting healthy business fundamentals, broad customer interest (enterprise and commercial), steady regional expansion, and good existing and new product expansion. All of this helped New Relic deliver a record net expansion rate of 141%, which we believe is indicative of the company’s growing portfolio diversity and ability to drive momentum across a broad group of customers. We remain bullish and are raising our estimates and price target. We continue to see good opportunities for more expansion/upside as APM penetration grows, Infrastructure gains momentum, and new machine learning and analytics-driven opportunities emerge.”
