CXApp Future Earnings and Revenue Growth
Assumptions
How have these above catalysts been quantified?- Analysts are assuming CXApp's revenue will grow by 26.6% annually over the next 3 years.
- Analysts are not forecasting that CXApp will become profitable in next 3 years. To represent the Analyst Price Target as a Future PE Valuation we will estimate CXApp's profit margin will increase from -242.1% to the average US Software industry of 13.3% in 3 years.
- If CXApp's profit margin were to converge on the industry average, you could expect earnings to reach $1.8 million (and earnings per share of $0.07) by about August 2028, up from $-15.9 million today.
- In order for the above numbers to justify the analysts price target, the company would need to trade at a PE ratio of 55.3x on those 2028 earnings, up from -1.1x today. This future PE is greater than the current PE for the US Software industry at 36.5x.
- Analysts expect the number of shares outstanding to grow by 7.0% per year for the next 3 years.
- To value all of this in today's terms, we will use a discount rate of 9.23%, as per the Simply Wall St company report.
CXApp Future Earnings Per Share Growth
Risks
What could happen that would invalidate this narrative?- The company's revenue held steady at $1.2 million despite management highlighting "meaningful ARR expansion," indicating slow top-line growth and challenging near-term market expansion, which could hamper sustainable revenue and earnings growth if soft demand persists.
- Operating losses increased versus last year, driven by significant continued R&D investment required to keep pace with AI-driven innovation, which-if recurring-could pressure net margins and delay the path to profitability, especially if revenue growth does not accelerate.
- Ongoing concentration in large Fortune 1000 enterprise clients means that renewal risk or delayed expansion from a handful of customers could create volatility in recurring revenue streams and expose earnings to abrupt declines.
- Widespread technology consolidation among large enterprises around integrated platforms (e.g., Microsoft, Google, Salesforce) may challenge CXAI's distribution and integration routes, limiting customer acquisition, and threatening medium
- to long-term topline growth.
- The overall reduction and compression of corporate office space (with the U.S. "set to lose more office space than it builds") suggest that even if return-to-office mandates rise in the short term, the long-term trend of downsizing and flexible/hybrid work may restrict the platform's total addressable market, negatively impacting revenue scalability.
Valuation
How have all the factors above been brought together to estimate a fair value?- The analysts have a consensus price target of $3.0 for CXApp based on their expectations of its future earnings growth, profit margins and other risk factors.
- In order for you to agree with the analyst's consensus, you'd need to believe that by 2028, revenues will be $13.3 million, earnings will come to $1.8 million, and it would be trading on a PE ratio of 55.3x, assuming you use a discount rate of 9.2%.
- Given the current share price of $0.84, the analyst price target of $3.0 is 72.1% higher.
- We always encourage you to reach your own conclusions though. So sense check these analyst numbers against your own assumptions and expectations based on your understanding of the business and what you believe is probable.
