Akamai Technologies (AKAM) Stock Forecast & Price Target
Akamai Technologies (AKAM) Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
Akamai Technologies demonstrated robust growth in its Security segment, which increased by 10% in constant currency in the second quarter, alongside a notable 13% growth in its Compute segment, driven by strong demand for cloud infrastructure services. Overall revenue rose by 6% in constant currency, prompting the company to raise its full-year guidance, including anticipated domestic revenue contributions from TikTok and future growth from large contracts in cloud services. Additionally, Akamai is poised for continued growth with projected increases in its Zero-trust enterprise and API security solutions, anticipated to rise by 30-35% year-over-year in constant currency for 2025, suggesting a favorable trajectory for the company amid broader market trends.
Bears say
Akamai Technologies's content delivery segment has shown stagnation with flat sequential growth for three consecutive quarters, indicating potential challenges in maintaining momentum in this core segment. Forecasts for compute revenue growth in 2025 may fall short of the anticipated 15%, with current estimates suggesting merely an 8% year-over-year increase, which raises concerns about overall revenue performance. Furthermore, competitive pressures within the CDN industry, characterized by significant price declines and the emergence of large customers developing their own CDN capabilities, could further strain Akamai's profitability and market position.
