CrowdStrike Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ:CRWD) is a prominent player in the cybersecurity industry, known for its cloud-delivered endpoint protection platform. The company competes with other cybersecurity firms like Palo Alto Networks and Fortinet. On November 27, 2024, Eric Heath from KeyBanc set a price target of $395 for CRWD, suggesting a potential upside of 15.47% from its trading price of $342.07.
Despite a recent decline in share price due to an unexpected third-quarter loss, CrowdStrike's financial performance remains strong. The downturn followed a significant outage in July, yet analysts continue to hold a positive outlook on the stock. As highlighted by Nicole Petallides, the analyst community, including Wedbush's Dan Ives, remains optimistic, with Ives setting a bullish price target of $390.
CrowdStrike's resilience is evident in its recent financial achievements. In the third quarter of fiscal year 2025, the company surpassed its $4 billion annual recurring revenue (ARR) milestone, reporting an ARR of $4.02 billion, slightly above the estimated $4.01 billion. This achievement underscores the company's robust market position and customer loyalty.
The company's retention rates further highlight its strong customer base. With a gross retention rate (GRR) of 97% and a net retention rate of 115%, CrowdStrike not only retains its customers but also sees them expanding their product portfolios. This stickiness is a testament to the value customers find in CrowdStrike's offerings.
Currently, CRWD's stock is priced at $341.78, reflecting a decrease of 6.18% or $22.53. The stock has fluctuated between $340.52 and $359.22 during the trading day. Over the past year, it has seen a high of $398.33 and a low of $200.81, with a market capitalization of approximately $83.77 billion. The trading volume for the day is 7,590,794 shares.
