Akamai Technologies (AKAM) Stock Forecast & Price Target
Akamai Technologies (AKAM) Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
Akamai Technologies has demonstrated robust growth across its business segments, with the Security segment seeing a 10% increase in constant currency for the second quarter and a favorable outlook for 2025. The Compute segment experienced a 13% rise in constant currency, fueled by sustained demand for cloud infrastructure services, and overall revenue increased by 6% in constant currency, surpassing previous targets. The company is optimistic about future performance, elevating its full-year guidance as it anticipates accelerated revenue growth driven by significant contracts and a projected 30-35% year-over-year increase in combined revenue from its Zero-trust enterprise and API security solutions for 2025.
Bears say
The analysis highlights that Akamai Technologies has experienced flat sequential growth in its content delivery segment for three consecutive quarters, indicating stagnation in a critical revenue stream. Furthermore, the firm's forecasted compute growth for 2025 may miss the targeted 15% goal, with reported revenue growth appearing weak despite adjustments for one-time factors, revealing underlying performance challenges. Additionally, the decline of the CDN market and increased competition, whereby large customers are developing their own internal CDN capabilities, pose significant threats to Akamai's market share and profit margins.
