Fortinet (FTNT) reported earnings 30 days ago. What's next for the stock?
Fortinet (FTNT) reached a significant support level, and could be a good pick for investors from a technical perspective. Recently, FTNT broke through the 50-day moving average, which suggests a short-term bullish trend.
Fortinet is rated a Buy with a $98 price target, implying a 23% upside driven by robust double-digit growth and AI-powered tailwinds. FTNT reported FQ3 2025 revenue of $1.72B (+14% YoY) and EPS of $0.74 (+17% YoY), both beating analyst estimates and demonstrating strong demand. The company achieved 18% product revenue growth, a 37% non-GAAP operating margin, and rapid expansion in AI-driven security operations, supporting its premium valuation.
Fortinet remains a Buy despite a 20% stock drop, with strong fundamentals and attractive valuation compared to peers. FTNT's shift to recurring services, leadership in SASE and AI security, and robust margins support long-term growth potential. Current market negativity is driven by short-term sales slowdown and lawsuit headlines, but core business and guidance remain solid.
