Furthermore, according to the comprehensive report, the opinions of $Workday (WDAY.US)$'s main analysts recently are as follows:
Workday management's recent adjustment of their medium-term outlook from the previously stated 15% for FY26/FY27 to a 14% subscription revenue growth for FY26 may lead to a considerable loss of investor confidence, supporting the bearish perspective. Nevertheless, the inherent strength of the core business and the potential for up-selling from an expanding range of solutions are believed to be undervalued at the present market prices.
Workday's Q4 and FY26 forecasts were found unsatisfactory, which can be largely clarified by some unique factors. Disregarding these factors, a continued growth trajectory in the mid-teens and a steady 200 basis point annual margin improvement remain intact. Despite a reduced outlook for FY26, it's assessed that with the market's reaction post-disclosure, the risk in the financial model has significantly diminished against the backdrop of an anticipated 14% growth in FY26.
The company's Q3 report was seen as neutral for the stock as the solid performance was balanced by somewhat weaker future guidance, according to an analyst. The negative reaction in after-hours trading was likely influenced by another reduction in the company's outlook. The belief is that this may represent a nearing low point in forecasts.
Workday is managing through a challenging yet improving economic climate, tempering its top-line growth expectations. It is now anticipating a 14% growth in subscription revenue for the next fiscal year, slightly lower than its prior forecast of 15%. The company's resilience, supported by its diverse product portfolio and customer base, positions it to sustain a medium-term target of 15% in subscription revenue growth annually.
