Furthermore, according to the comprehensive report, the opinions of $F5 Inc (FFIV.US)$'s main analysts recently are as follows:
F5 Networks' sustained software growth is expected to contribute to a further re-evaluation of its shares as the company transitions more towards a software-centric model.
F5 Networks' Q4 outcomes surpassed expectations, largely driven by software performance, and the outlook has been improved due to a somewhat more favorable enterprise spending climate, market share gains, and anticipated price hikes. Despite the stock's approximately 20% increase over the past three months, a stronger conviction in the software narrative is required to enhance the valuation multiple.
F5 Networks' September quarter results surpassed expectations on both revenue and earnings, primarily due to strong software performance. Sales growth is anticipated to reach 4.5% by fiscal 2025, with sustained momentum in software and a recovery in systems from their low point.
F5 Networks ended its fiscal year positively, surpassing both consensus estimates and its own projected high-end guidance on key financial metrics. The initial guide for FY25 was also above expectations. Despite the encouraging consistency of results and a raised outlook, cautiousness is advised regarding the second half's financial performance, anticipated new business, and the stock's current valuation.

此外，綜合報道，$F5 Inc (FFIV.US)$近期主要分析師觀點如下：
F5 Networks持續增長的軟件業務有望爲其股價帶來進一步重新評估，因爲該公司更多地轉向以軟件爲中心的模式。
F5 Networks第四季度的業績超出預期，主要受軟件表現推動，並由於企業支出環境更加有利，市場份額增加和預期的價格上漲，前景已經改善。儘管股價在過去三個月大約增長了20％，但需要更加堅定地相信軟件故事，來提高估值倍數。
F5 Networks九月季度的業績超出預期，營業收入和盈利均表現出色，主要歸功於強勁的軟件表現。銷售增長預計到2025財年將達到4.5％，軟件業務持續增長，並從最低點恢復的勢頭。
F5 Networks在財年結束時呈現了積極的態勢，超出共識預期和自己在關鍵財務指標上的高端指引。2025財年的初步指引也超過預期。儘管結果表現一直穩定且展望提升，但仍建議對下半年的財務表現、預期的新業務和當前股價的估值保持謹慎。
