Autodesk reported fiscal 2027 second-quarter results that exceeded the high end of previous guidance, driven by a 16% year-over-year increase in revenue. The company attributed growth partly to a new transaction model and its “project intelligence” strategy, which integrates data across design, construction, and manufacturing. The financial outlook was further bolstered by the acquisition of MaintainX.

Following these earnings, financial analysts issued updated price targets for the company. Citigroup raised its target to $276 with a ‘neutral’ rating, while Guggenheim increased its target to $283 with a ‘buy’ rating. Conversely, the Royal Bank of Canada lowered its objective to $305.
