Datadog print likely lifted hopes for a larger beat. In the end, the results were “fine” but Karl Keirstead

lacked the upside that we saw from Datadog. The direct Datadog compare may be too Analyst

demanding, as Datadog results are far more tethered to AI-native hyper-growth as well karl.keirstead@ubs.com

Valuation: Associate Analyst

At 16x CY26E FCF (and 18x non-GAAP EPS) for a mid-teens revs growth profile and dean.marriott@ubs.com

slightly improving margins, valuation seems reasonable but in our view not yet +1-212-713 2115

compelling. Given these results we’re trimming our PT from $40 to $36, based on a

CY27E EV/FCF multiple of 14x, a discount to the comp group.
