On November 12, Palo Alto Networks fell 3.11% in Pre-Market Trading, trading at $326.05 per share, with turnover of $5.693 million.
The move coincided with a more cautious tone ahead of the company’s November 18 results as analyst views diverged, with Jefferies cutting its price target to $400 from $450 while Deutsche Bank reiterated a more bullish $430 view.
Recent market commentary also showed the average analyst target near $403.82, while consensus expectations for the upcoming quarter point to revenue of about $3.307 billion, up 34.39% year over year, and adjusted EPS of about $0.97. AI security and platform cross-sell remain key medium-term themes, but the target-price cut suggests some investors are becoming more selective on valuation and the pace of execution.
