Cellebrite DI (CLBT) has received a new Buy rating, initiated by Lake Street analyst, Eric Martinuzzi.
Eric Martinuzzi has given his Buy rating due to a combination of factors including Cellebrite DI’s introduction of an innovative product and the company’s strong financial performance. The new Case-to-Closure (C2C) platform, which enables law enforcement agencies to integrate data extraction, analysis, and case management in a single dashboard, is a significant enhancement on Cellebrite’s previous offerings. The platform’s ability to connect various elements of the digital investigation process positions Cellebrite to capitalize on cross-selling opportunities and improve customer retention. Martinuzzi is optimistic about the company’s growth trajectory, evidenced by its annual recurring revenue (ARR) hitting $316 million with a 19% adjusted EBITDA margin, and the potential to reach nearly $1 billion ARR with even higher margins in the future.
Furthermore, Martinuzzi points out that investors might be underestimating Cellebrite’s growth prospects, given the rising demand for digital forensics in law enforcement driven by an increase in digital crime. With crime rates in major cities on the upswing and over 90% of crimes requiring some form of digital forensic work, Cellebrite’s solutions are becoming increasingly indispensable. The company’s ongoing transition to a subscription-based model is expected to stabilize and accelerate revenue growth, while the integrated nature of the C2C platform marks a strategic shift from selling standalone products to offering a comprehensive workflow solution. These factors, coupled with the company’s move towards achieving a Rule of 40 status (where the sum of revenue growth rate and AEBITDA margin meets or exceeds 40%), build a strong case for Martinuzzi’s Buy rating and a $13 price target.
