I am initiating coverage of Salesforce with a Buy rating with a $430 price target, as AI is proving to be a monetization layer rather than a threat. My investment thesis is driven by Agentforce monetization, Data 360, and Informatica adoption, and modest acceleration across Salesforce's much larger application business. The valuation remains attractive despite the recent recovery, with CRM trading at a 0.97x forward non-GAAP PEG, roughly 19% below the sector median.
Salesforce NYSE: CRM said its artificial intelligence product adoption is expanding across its customer base, with management highlighting growing demand for agentic workflows, consumption-based offerings and industry-specific AI applications during its Q2 fiscal 2027 investor webinar.

Examine the evolution of Salesforce's (CRM) overseas revenue trends and their effects on Wall Street's forecasts and the stock's prospects.
The surge in Salesforce (CRM) stock reflects renewed confidence that the company can turn artificial intelligence into a growth catalyst rather than be disrupted by AI.
Salesforce surged over 22% after Q2 2027 results, driven by a transformative AI partnership with Anthropic and the launch of Claudeforce. CRM's forward P/E of 14.4 is seen as deeply undervalued for a high-margin software leader now positioned as a full AI player. The Anthropic alliance eliminates existential AI risks, providing Salesforce with advanced reasoning capabilities and a powerful growth catalyst.
CRM raises its fiscal 2027 revenue outlook as AI demand, stronger bookings and low attrition reinforce its case for organic reacceleration.
