Cloud Partnerships And AI Integration Will Unlock Future Markets

Key Takeaways

• Strategic alliances and robust AI integration drive stronger sales pipeline, positioning Domo to capitalize on the industry's cloud migration and rising demand for data monetization.
  
• Adoption of consumption-based pricing and international expansion fuel stable, high-quality revenue, with cost discipline and operational efficiency supporting margin and earnings improvement.
  
• Increasing reliance on major platform partners and market consolidation threaten Domo's growth, pricing power, and long-term independence amid rising competition and shifting industry dynamics.

Catalysts

Operates a cloud-based modern AI and data products platform in North America, Western Europe, Australia, Japan, and India.

• Domo's strategic partnerships with major cloud data warehouse (CDW) providers and hyperscalers (Snowflake, Databricks, Google, AWS, Oracle) are gaining traction, with enhanced integrations and joint go-to-market motions producing a significant increase in high-quality sales pipeline. These deeper partnerships enable Domo to leverage the ongoing industry migration from on-premises to cloud-based analytics, driving future revenue growth and improving deal conversion rates.
  
• The rapid enterprise shift toward deploying advanced AI and LLM-powered analytics is accelerating demand for Domo's end-to-end platform, which natively integrates AI, data integration, workflow automation, and governance. Benefiting from organizations' need to monetize growing volumes of data and capitalize on AI-driven insights, this increases Domo's total addressable market and positions it for sustained revenue expansion.
  
• Adoption of a consumption-based pricing model (over 75% of ARR, targeting ~90% by year-end) is catalyzing multi-year, larger contracts and enabling easier expansion-especially for wall-to-wall use cases across customer organizations. Early signs indicate higher net revenue retention (108% for new consumption customers), supporting higher long-term revenues and greater earnings predictability.
  
• International markets-particularly Japan-are experiencing outsized growth, with record ACV and exceptionally high retention, demonstrating Domo's ability to capture global demand for democratized analytics and adding a stable, high-quality revenue stream that supports top-line growth and gross margin improvement.
  
• Improved operational efficiency (record operating margin, positive free cash flow, rising subscription gross margins) reflects successful execution on cost discipline, operating leverage, and focus on higher-value multi-year contracts. As Domo continues to scale with efficient customer acquisition and stronger retention, these trends point to expanding net margins and improved long-term earnings prospects.

Domo Future Earnings and Revenue Growth

Assumptions

• Analysts are assuming Domo's revenue will grow by 4.8% annually over the next 3 years.
• Analysts are not forecasting that Domo will become profitable in next 3 years. To represent the Analyst Price Target as a Future PE Valuation we will estimate Domo's profit margin will increase from -24.3% to the average US Software industry of 13.1% in 3 years.
• If Domo's profit margin were to converge on the industry average, you could expect earnings to reach $47.9 million (and earnings per share of $1.04) by about September 2028, up from $-77.4 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 23.1x on those 2028 earnings, up from -7.6x today. This future PE is lower than the current PE for the US Software industry at 36.6x.
• Analysts expect the number of shares outstanding to grow by 5.21% per year for the next 3 years.
• To value all of this in today's terms, we will use a discount rate of 9.12%, as per the Simply Wall St company report.

Domo Future Earnings Per Share Growth

Risks

• Growing partnerships and deep integration with cloud data warehouse (CDW) vendors and hyperscalers risk increasing Domo's dependency on a few large platform partners; any strategic changes, shifts in incentives, or competing offerings by these partners could jeopardize Domo's channel sales and limit revenue visibility.
  
• The cloud analytics and BI market continues consolidating around large, ecosystem-based platforms (e.g., Microsoft, Google, Salesforce, AWS)-a trend that may marginalize independent vendors like Domo, potentially capping its market share and putting downward pressure on growth and long-term revenue.
  
• The pivot to a consumption-based pricing model exposes Domo to possible volatility in customer usage patterns; if customers optimize spend or shift workloads to integrated solutions offered by larger platforms, expansion rates may stall, impacting net revenue retention and dampening top-line growth.
  
• Domo's current improvements in operating margin and free cash flow have been driven largely by disciplined cost management and strategic partnerships; if sustaining growth necessitates higher sales and marketing expenditure to compete against better-capitalized peers, operating margins and earnings could come under pressure.
  
• Domo's innovation roadmap relies heavily on advanced AI-driven analytics, but rapid commoditization of AI features in broader platforms and open-source tools risks eroding Domo's competitive differentiation and pricing power, threatening future revenue growth and gross margin expansion.

Valuation

• The analysts have a consensus price target of $18.5 for Domo based on their expectations of its future earnings growth, profit margins and other risk factors. However, there is a degree of disagreement amongst analysts, with the most bullish reporting a price target of $21.0, and the most bearish reporting a price target of just $15.0.
  
• In order for you to agree with the analyst's consensus, you'd need to believe that by 2028, revenues will be $366.0 million, earnings will come to $47.9 million, and it would be trading on a PE ratio of 23.1x, assuming you use a discount rate of 9.1%.
  
• Given the current share price of $14.57, the analyst price target of $18.5 is 21.2% 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.
