Dynatrace Inc. (NYSE:DT) has been putting up a solid performance, having received an average recommendation of “Moderate Buy” by the twenty-three analysts that cover the company, according to Bloomberg reports. The competitors in the market have been underestimating Dynatrace’s ability to stay ahead of the game with its innovative and highly effective security platform for multicloud environments. With seven investment analysts rating the stock with a hold recommendation and sixteen giving it a buy recommendation, Dynatrace is making significant strides towards becoming a household name in tech security.
In fact, their recent quarterly earnings report has shown just how competent the company is. On May 17th this year, the business released its earnings per share (EPS) for the quarter, which stood at $0.20 – well above what had been expected at $0.09 EPS – beating predictions by $0.11. This impressive feat came on top of a net margin of 9.32% and a return on equity of 10.81% – some eye-watering figures that propelled Dynatrace into serious contention as one of market leaders in modern technology infrastructure.
The revenue generated during Q1 underscored this excellent run as well- recording precisely $314.48 million versus consensus expectations at roughly ten million fewer ($303m). In terms of current projections, there seems to be no stopping Dynatrace moving forward either –with analysts anticipating around 0.43 EPS for the current fiscal year.
Dynatrace operates its platform through multiple offerings such as application and microservices monitoring, runtime application security (which very few competitors can do), infrastructure monitoring, log management and analytics powered by artificial intelligence/machine learning algorithms known as Davis along with digital experience monitoring plus digital business analytics all controlled from one modern cloud automation dashboard.
Overall, it appears that Dynatrace is building quite an impressive reputation based on their popularity with investors as well as their stellar earnings. If the company remains true to its vision and continues its focus on innovation, Dynatrace looks set to take centre stage in the tech security industry in no time.
