Summary Backblaze, Inc. is rapidly re-rating as AI-driven demand transforms it from a commoditized storage vendor to a strategic neocloud supplier. Following a Q1 earnings beat-and-raise, BLZE shares surged nearly 50%, signaling a major shift in market sentiment.

BLZE valuation remains modest relative to growth prospects, with AI infrastructure demand providing a sustainable lift. Read the full article on Seeking Alpha

BLZE: Softer Outlook And Capex Weigh While Neocloud Wins May Help

Backblaze's updated analyst price target has shifted modestly lower, with cuts across firms now clustering in the $4.50 to $8.50 range as analysts factor in softer B2 Cloud growth, a guided 8% revenue growth rate, some gross margin pressure, higher capital expenditures, and mixed near term revenue trends, alongside strong recent EBITDA performance and management changes that they argue could support execution over time. Analyst Commentary Street research on Backblaze reflects a more cautious tone, with several bearish analysts trimming price targets and, in some cases, moving to the sidelines to reassess the risk profile.

BLZE: Softer Outlook And Mixed Trends May Set Stage For Neocloud Upside

Backblaze's updated analyst price targets, which have moved into a lower $4.50 to $8.50 range, reflect analysts' mixed take on softer B2 Cloud growth, a guided slowdown to about 8% revenue growth, margin pressure and higher capital spending.

Backblaze: As B2 Cloud Storage Accelerates, This Stock Can Rally Fiercely

Summary Backblaze is a promising investment due to AI-driven revenue growth, robust Q4 results, and a strategic sales overhaul boosting its B2 cloud storage business. The company is expecting B2 cloud storage revenue to accelerate consistently as it moves through FY25, a testament to strong secular tailwinds and better sales execution. BLZE balances growth and profitability, maintaining a mid-20s revenue growth pace and a ~10% adjusted EBITDA margin, with positive free cash flow expected in FY25. The stock's post-earnings dip presents a great buying opportunity, especially with the stock trading at just ~11x forward adjusted EBITDA. Read the full article on Seeking Alpha

Backblaze: Great Value Buy Amid Sales Shake-Up

Summary I'm reiterating my buy rating on Backblaze, as the company reported an acceleration in revenue growth in Q3. Backblaze has been focused on upgrading its go-to-market process, bringing on a new Chief Revenue Officer to lead its charge upmarket. The company's layoffs of 12% of its headcount have also led to significant adjusted EBITDA margin expansion. The stock still trades at a very cheap ~2x forward revenue multiple, below many storage peers. Read the full article on Seeking Alpha

Backblaze: Lacking A Competitive Offering As Losses Accumulate

Summary Backblaze has grown well (+26% CAGR), driven by a price-competitive offering and a good quality offering. Whilst its ARR continues to grow, we see fundamental issues with its broader offering. It faces stiff competition from the likes of Amazon and lacks any form of material differentiation. We expect growth to continue to slow as Management is forced to lift prices. It is burning cash with solvency risk. Shareholders will likely need to fund further losses. We suspect a takeover is the only route to saving this company long-term, as we struggle to see how it can differentiate itself without either remaining loss-making or developing a suite of services. Backblaze is trading at 4x revenue, which values its revenue generation beyond a reasonable level we feel given the risks highlighted. Read the full article on Seeking Alpha
