NICE Ltd (NICE) Stock Forecast & Price Target
NICE Ltd (NICE) Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
NICE Ltd is positioned for long-term capital appreciation, driven largely by its impressive 42% growth in the AI segment, which generated $238 million in the latest quarter and is set to further benefit from the upcoming acquisition of Cognigy, projected to significantly enhance annual recurring revenue. The market potential for NICE is substantial, with the customer engagement and AI software sectors anticipated to grow from $31 billion in 2025 to $72 billion by 2028, alongside a notable increase in agentic AI applications expected to reach over $30 billion by 2029. Under the leadership of new CEO Scott Russell, NICE is fostering strategic partnerships, enhancing its market presence, and is considered an attractive acquisition target due to its current valuation metrics, trading at 2.4 times projected 2026 revenue and 10 times estimated free cash flow for that year.
Bears say
NICE Ltd's stock has experienced a significant decline of 17% year-to-date, contrasting sharply with the 10% increase in the Russell 3000 index, which indicates underperformance relative to the broader market. The excerpts reveal that there have been no recognized gains or losses on investments and derivatives, suggesting a lack of financial maneuvering that could enhance return on investments. Additionally, the mention of an excess tax shortfall from share-based payment arrangements could signify potential operational inefficiencies or added financial burdens, further contributing to the negative outlook on the company's stock performance.
