Varonis Systems (VRNS) Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
Varonis Systems experienced a 9% year-over-year revenue increase to $173.4 million, surpassing both its guidance and market expectations, indicating strong operational performance during its transition to a cloud-based revenue model. The company's SaaS business has shown significant growth, accounting for 86% of annual recurring revenue (ARR), and management forecasts that this will reach 100% by the end of CY26, potentially yielding an ARR growth rate of 15-20% in CY27. Additionally, the ongoing shift from on-premises to SaaS offerings has resulted in a healthy ARR growth rate of approximately 19% year-over-year, underscoring Varonis's successful navigation of its revenue model transition and enhanced sales focus.
Bears say
Varonis Systems reported a decline in gross margin from 84.4% to 80.0%, which fell short of analyst expectations, indicating potential struggles in maintaining profitability during its cloud transition. The company experienced a net operating loss of $11.0 million, significantly worse than consensus estimates, accompanied by a disappointing reduction of its annual recurring revenue (ARR) guidance by $17 million, exacerbated by unexpected declines in renewal rates. Additionally, the firm announced a reduction in workforce of approximately 5% and a substantial projected churn in non-SaaS ARR, which could adversely affect free cash flow in the upcoming fiscal year.
