Piper Trims Five9 (FIVN) Price Target, Maintains Overweight Rating

Five9, Inc. (NASDAQ:FIVN) is one of the best SaaS stocks to buy according to analysts. Piper Sandler has trimmed its price target on Five9, Inc. (NASDAQ:FIVN) to $31 from $36, while maintaining an Overweight rating on the stock. The revision follows what the firm described as one of its weakest rounds of field checks in recent memory, with particular softness noted around bookings activity.

While Five9 continues to hold a solid position in the contact center as a service (CCaaS) market, recent indicators suggest demand trends have been uneven. Piper’s findings point to a slowdown in deal flow, which could signal caution among enterprise customers or longer sales cycles as budget scrutiny increases.

Despite the disappointing signals from the latest checks, Piper has not changed its fundamental stance on the company. The Overweight rating reflects continued confidence in Five9’s long-term prospects, underpinned by its cloud-native architecture, expanding partner ecosystem, and product development in areas like AI-powered customer engagement.

Shares of Five9 have been under pressure over the past year, reflecting broader challenges across the enterprise software space and a shift in investor focus from growth to profitability. Still, for long-term investors, the current valuation may offer an entry point if Five9 can stabilize near-term performance and reaccelerate bookings momentum in the quarters ahead.
