CONCLUSION PRICE: US$28.40

Enabling the shift towards agentic coding was the key theme behind GitLab Transcend, a TARGET: US$28.00

live customer event hosted in London this week. GitLab Orbit was released into public beta, Our base case discounted cash flow assumes

a context graph for AI agents that holds all of the intelligence GTLB has on its platform about a terminal multiple of 8x CY30E EV/FCF, a
