GTLB Stock Recent News
GTLB LATEST HEADLINES
A number of high-flying growth stocks have come back down to earth following the recent market pullback. Let's look at two that investors can consider buying this year, especially if the market once again starts to head lower.
GitLab excels in DevSecOps with AI integration, offering a unified platform for planning to compliance, attracting enterprise customers and boosting ARR by 52%. Financially strong, GitLab's revenue grew 29% YoY, maintaining a 91% gross margin, and free cash flow surged from $24.5M to $62.1M. GitLab's business model smartly combines open-core and subscription-based SaaS, with a successful "land and expand" strategy driving a net retention rate of 123%.
With the Nasdaq Composite down more than 13% from all-time highs reached in late 2024, this market sell-off is creating some potentially nice long-term buying opportunities in the technology sector.
Gitlab (GTLB) might move higher on growing optimism about its earnings prospects, which is reflected by its upgrade to a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy).
There has been some significant market volatility this earnings season, with disappointing reports spooking some investors. One stock that got a reprieve following its earnings was DevSecOps platform GitLab (GTLB -3.21%), largely because investors liked its continued strong growth.
GitLab benefits from strong DevSecOps partnerships and AI-powered tools, but rising competition and high valuation make it a risky bet for investors.
GitLab stock popped after its Q4 results showed a fantastic 29% y/y growth, with only a modest deceleration to the mid-20s implied by the company's FY26 guidance. GitLab's low market penetration and industry leadership provide significant growth opportunities in the DevOps space. Upsell potential through Premium and Ultimate SKUs and adherence to Rule of 40 principles bolster GitLab's long-term growth prospects.
GTLB's fourth-quarter fiscal 2025 results benefit from solid revenue growth, driven by strong DevSecOps demand, AI adoption and enterprise expansion.
JP Morgan analyst Pinjalim Bora reiterated the Neutral rating on GitLab Inc. GTLB, lowering the price forecast to $62 from $65.
GitLab's NASDAQ: GTLB market may wallow near its early 2024 lows, but lower lows are unlikely, and a strong rebound lies ahead. The Q4 results and guidance for 2025 are the reason.
