Verisk Analytics (VRSK) is expected to report in-line Q2 results, maintain its fiscal 2026 guidance, deliver faster organic growth in the second half and generate longer-term revenue opportunities from AI products, RBC Capital Markets said.The brokerage said in a Sunday note that it expects the company's Q2 revenue to rise 3.6% to $801 million and adjusted earnings are projected at $1.92 per share. It also sees subscription revenue growing in the low-7% range.The investment firm said margins are likely to decline from a year earlier in Q2 but added that Verisk should maintain its adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization margin guidance of 56% to 56.5%.Slower adoption of Verisk's AI tools and longer contract negotiations are manageable and could provide meaningful future revenue opportunities. Strong catastrophe bond activity, steady customer renewals, new product launches and the remaining benefit from the accelerated share repurchase program should also support Verisk's results, the note added.RBC kept its outperform rating and $230 price target.Shares of Verisk were down 2% in Monday afternoon trading.Price: $178.60, Change: $-3.58, Percent Change: -1.97%

Verisk Analytics (VRSK) delivered Q1 organic revenue growth above consensus, helped by solid performances in its underwriting and claims businesses, Morgan Stanley said Wednesday in a report.Client interest and competitive win rates remain strong, though management noted that sales cycles for AI-related products may take longer as insurers work through governance and data-security requirements, the report said.Morgan Stanley expects Verisk to unlock more value from its proprietary data as insurers integrate it into their own systems or use the company's models and tools, though the report said the opportunity is still in early stages.Last year's Q2 margin included a one-time foreign-exchange benefit of 120 basis points that will not repeat, the report said. Management also began a $1.5 billion accelerated share repurchase and faced higher interest expense tied to more than $1 billion in new debt issuance, the report said.Morgan Stanley called Verisk one of the most AI-resilient companies in its information-services coverage, raising its price target on the stock to $235 from $230 and maintaining its equal-weight rating.Price: $184.91, Change: $-3.28, Percent Change: -1.74%
