NOW Stock Recent News

Business process solutions developer ServiceNow (NOW -2.86%) didn't finish the stock trading week on a high note. The company's share price fell by nearly 3% that day, primarily on news that it will apparently spend a hefty amount on cloud services.

ServiceNow's NYSE: NOW Q2 results and guidance update are a wow moment for investors and an eye-opener for those waiting on AI's second wave. The second wave, the rise of agentic services and the application of AI, is expected to be a larger, faster-growing, and longer-sustained rally than infrastructure, which has been a rocket-ship of gains for technology investors.

ServiceNow (NYSE: NOW) is making headlines in the stock market—and for valid reasons. The cloud-based workflow automation firm has been experiencing significant growth recently, with its stock increasing by 25% over the last year.

ServiceNow (NOW 4.56%) stock posted gains in Thursday's trading following the company's latest quarterly report. The software specialist's share price gained 4.2% in the session and had been up as much as 9.9% early in the day's trading.

ServiceNow reported strong Q2 results, and even though the stock's valuation is high, future growth prospects more than offset this. Sector-relative fundamentals and price factors look less than ideal, but in the reality of sentiment-driven markets, the investment case is good. I anticipate a 35% 18-month price return, or about 20% in 12 months.

ServiceNow's Q2 earnings and revenues surpass estimates, driven by strong AI momentum, large deals and expanding enterprise demand.

ServiceNow, Inc. NOW posted better-than-expected second-quarter financial results on Wednesday.

ServiceNow Inc. CEO Bill McDermott says artificial intelligence is helping save on labor costs and making the company faster. “We're slowing down the hiring in jobs that are — quite frankly — soul crushing jobs," McDermott said on Bloomberg Tech.
