Research Alert: Otex Delivers Q3 Beats; Enterprise Cloud Bookings Accelerates.

By

-- CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:

OTEX reported Q3 revenue of $1.283B, growing 2.2% Y/Y and beating consensus by $10M, while non-GAAP EPS of $1.01 exceeded estimates by $0.09 and grew 23.2% Y/Y. Cloud revenue rose 6.6% to $493M with enterprise cloud bookings accelerating 29.6% to $196M, marking the 21st consecutive quarter of cloud organic growth. The enterprise cloud bookings acceleration suggests OTEX's "Enterprise Information Management for AI" positioning is gaining customer traction amid the enterprise AI transition. The completion of CEO transition with Ayman Antoun's April 2026 start removes a key business overhang for the stock. Adjusted EBITDA margin expanded to 34.1% from 31.5% prior year, demonstrating strong operational leverage despite continued AI and cloud investments. We believe the company's disciplined cost management supports margin expansion. The company returned $313M to shareholders including $247M in repurchases, though free cash flow declined 18.4% to $305M on higher capex and working capital changes.
