On August 13, HubSpot declined 5.02% in regular trading, trading at $209.43/share with turnover of $156 million. The stock remains under sustained selling pressure following its Q2 earnings release and a wave of analyst downgrades.
HubSpot reported Q2 adjusted EPS of $3.26, beating the consensus estimate of $3.02, with revenue of $911.7 million also exceeding the $898.3 million estimate. However, the company lowered its full-year revenue guidance, raising concerns about growth sustainability. Oppenheimer noted HubSpot lacks a clear path to a business inflection, as heightened customer budget scrutiny pressures net new annual recurring revenue growth.
Multiple investment banks issued downgrades in rapid succession: Bernstein cut its rating from Outperform to Market Perform with a target slashed from $381 to $220; BMO Capital downgraded to Market Perform with a $215 target; JPMorgan reduced its target from $425 to $268; and Barclays lowered its target from $270 to $240. The stock had already plunged over 24% on the earnings release date, and the continued analyst pessimism is extending the drawdown.
