A Guide to IBM Software: Upgrading to Overweight with Greater Confidence in Software

Acceleration Ahead

We are upgrading to Overweight with greater confidence in a 2H’26 CC software acceleration following a deeper look

at IBM’s software business. We’ve previously noted that software is the primary driver of IBM stock and this remains the case

as the higher value software business mix continues to grow. We could still see some RHEL softness on the back of weaker

server growth across the industry, but we think this will be more than offset by: 1) Red Hat/OpenShift migration tailwinds; 2)

OpenShift strength aided by growing AI-driven container adoption; 3) Automation reacceleration as HashiCorp taps increasing

C-suite sponsorship; 4) contribution from Data following the recent Confluent acquisition; and 5) Transaction Processing

acceleration related to the current mainframe cycle.
