Robert W. Baird Thinks Carbon Black Inc’s Stock is Going to Recover


Robert W. Baird analyst Jonathan Ruykhaver maintained a Buy rating on Carbon Black Inc (CBLK) today and set a price target of $20. The company’s shares closed yesterday at $13.66, close to its 52-week low of $11.80.

Ruykhaver wrote:

“We maintain our Outperform rating and $20 price target. 1Q19 was a solid quarter and especially Cloud Subscription, which grew ARR 71% with essentially one offering. We believe Carbon Black remains under the radar of most investors and expect the company to be a long term leader in endpoint security based. While 1H19 is a transition period, we believe CBLK can achieve accelerating cloud growth via ThreatHunter (EDR) and LiveOps (real-time inquiry), which would validate the bull thesis and drive a meaningful re-rating of shares.”
