Oppenheimer Sticks to Its Buy Rating for Twilio Inc (TWLO)


In a report released today, Ittai Kidron from Oppenheimer maintained a Buy rating on Twilio Inc (TWLO), with a price target of $110. The company’s shares closed on Wednesday at $76.96.

Kidron observed:

“On Wednesday, Twilio filed a proxy in connection to its proposed acquisition of SendGrid. We’d note: (1) Twilio made four cash offers for SendGrid before internal forecasts were shared and a stock deal was deemed as offering superior value; (2) the deal’s strategic rationale centered on the value of a single platform, cross- selling opportunities, and acceleration of growth. Cost synergies weren’t highlighted; (3) Twilio’s internal forecasts were materially above consensus calling for 136.3% net dollar expansion rate vs. consensus of 125.7% (2019); (4) synergies math focused on FCF and points to strong revenue ramp in 2021/thereafter; (5) SendGrid’s projections were also well above consensus. Overall, we continue to see strong core business upside and compelling SendGrid deal rationale/synergies and remain bullish on Twilio. Maintain Outperform.”
