Analysts expect Qualtrics to benefit from net new budget as well as consolidation of spend from a long tail of fragmented vendors as a function of its technology breadth and depth, with key differentiators being its ability to process unstructured data and its integration with other action-oriented workflow tools.
The Goldman Sachs price objective is $18. Qualtrics stock has a $17.75 consensus target, and Tuesday’s final trade was for $16.92 a share.
