BlackLine (BL) Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
BlackLine Inc. reported total revenue growth of approximately 9% year-over-year, reaching around $170 million, with subscription revenue showing a similar growth trajectory of approximately 9.5%. The company's annual recurring revenue (ARR) experienced growth of 6%, or about 8% on a constant currency basis, indicating a stable demand for its SaaS financial accounting solutions. Additionally, there is potential for further improvement in free cash flow margins and operating leverage, which supports a positive outlook for overall margin growth as the company optimizes its cost structure.
Bears say
BlackLine's revenue growth outlook for 2025 is subdued, with guidance projecting approximately 7% growth, falling about 2 percentage points short of expectations, and reported revenue growth for Q1 is even weaker at around 6% year-over-year. The company faces challenges, including a slowdown in demand as indicated by declining billings and contracted recurring revenue growth, which are significantly below consensus estimates, highlighting a downturn in business momentum. Additionally, the expected revenue underperformance and adjustments to earnings estimates have resulted in a devaluation of the stock, reflecting concerns over sustained growth and market positioning.
