On September 17, Elastic N.V. rose 5.02% in regular trading, trading at $89.28 per share, with turnover of approximately $26.54 million. The rally was driven by a significant analyst upgrade combined with a new product catalyst.
On the news front, Wedbush nearly doubled its price target on Elastic from $65 to $125, maintaining an outperform rating. The current average analyst target price has risen to $110.80, implying substantial upside from the current trading level. The upgrade follows the company's strong fiscal Q1 results reported in late August, in which adjusted EPS of $0.70 beat the $0.58 consensus estimate and revenue of $478.1 million topped the $469.7 million projection, prompting multiple brokerages including RBC, Baird, and Guggenheim to raise their targets.
Simultaneously, Elastic launched its serverless Elasticsearch Vector Database, which automates key parts of the retrieval pipeline for vector-based applications. The product leverages Better Binary Quantization technology to compress vector memory while maintaining search speed, reducing operational costs for developers building vector search applications. The offering is now available on Elastic Cloud Serverless.
