According to InvestingPro data, analysts’ targets range from $225 to $440, with 37 analysts recently revising their earnings expectations upward for the upcoming period.
The research firm’s decision comes as Salesforce continues to expand its artificial intelligence capabilities through pre-built agent solutions for customers.
Cantor Fitzgerald highlighted that these pre-built agents represent a strategic approach to increasing AI adoption among Salesforce users.
"These pre-built agents are yet another way to lower barriers and make AI Agent adoption as seamless and painless as possible for customers, while also removing friction from high-cost implementation schedules," the firm noted in its analysis.
The maintained price target suggests potential upside for the customer relationship management software provider, which has been integrating AI technologies across its platform offerings.
