-- 独立系調査会社CFRAは、に対し、以下の調査レポートを提供しました。CFRAのアナリストは、以下のように見解をまとめています。2027年のEPS予想PERを20倍とした場合、ITRIの過去3年および5年間の平均PERである25~31倍を下回るものの、事業の質の向上と構造的な利益率の拡大を反映し、12ヶ月目標株価を131ドル(従来123ドル)に引き上げます。一方、ITRIの第2四半期業績見通しが予想を下回ったこと、プロジェクトスケジュールの変動による短期的な収益への逆風、および買収に伴う株式希薄化の影響を考慮し、2026年と2027年のEPS予想をそれぞれ6.01ドルと6.58ドル(従来6.15ドルと6.83ドル)に引き下げます。しかしながら、当社は変革に対する前向きな見方を維持しており、過去最高の粗利益率、年間経常収益(ARR)の28%増、レジリエンス・ソリューションズの初期段階における好調な実績、そしてアウトカム事業の22%増を、実行の証拠として挙げています。受注残高の減少と下半期の実行リスクは認識しており、第3四半期の業績見通しは投資家心理にとって重要な局面であると考えています。しかしながら、上半期の業績が社内予想を上回ったことから、事業構成の変化と収益の質の根本的な改善による長期的な追い風が、短期的な変動を上回ると考えています。
