TTAN

The company's valuation is likely to benefit from the Schneider acquisition of PTC, which established a floor for vertical software valuations, as most names outside EDA trade below PTC's ~22x EV/CY27 FCF multiple.

The acquisition of PTC at ~22x EV/CY27 FCF puts a floor under vertical software valuations, suggesting potential upside for other names in the sector.

AI adoption is accelerating among trade contractors, with a high percentage already using AI and increased willingness to invest.

The company's embedded, vertical AI approach, trade-specific data, and outcome-based monetization are favored as key advantages.

Morgan Stanley's survey of trade contractors suggests that the company's embedded, vertical approach and outcome-based pricing are favored, given that a majority of contractors use AI but have low trust in it.

TTAN +2.4% as MS’s survey of 1,017 trades contractors found 61% already using AI but 58% with little or no trust in it, which it reads as favoring TTAN’s embedded, vertical approach and outcome-based pricing.

TD Cowen is incrementally confident that recent pressure from GTV softness, Max revenue-recognition dynamics, and the CRO transition does not indicate a fundamental issue, following meetings with VP IR Jason Rechel.

Max adoption continues to ramp, with 3-year deals and a ~3-month revenue lag creating a larger 4Q/1Q step-up, and the new "Mini Max" is expected to broaden adoption beyond the over 700 Max customers targeted by year-end.

Cowen views 2Q GTV growth of 17% as largely impacted by macro, weather, and calendar factors rather than TTAN-specific weakness, and reiterates a Buy rating with a $100 price target.

Morgan Stanley believes ServiceTitan could be a direct beneficiary as consumer agents make it easier to find, compare, and book local services, potentially increasing job volumes for trades businesses and translating into higher GTV for TTAN.

Morgan Stanley reiterated an Overweight rating with a $92 price target.

MS says ServiceTitan could be a direct beneficiary as consumer agents make it easier to find, compare and book local services such as HVAC without consumers having to search or call providers themselves. Given the fragmentation of local services, MS thinks...

Piper reiterated its Overweight rating and price target, arguing the company is early in monetizing Max, its AI orchestration platform for the trades.

Max could significantly increase subscription revenue per customer and drive higher transaction-based revenue by automating workflows.

There is upside from expansion into new trades and AI-assisted software development, which could accelerate product velocity and widen the platform advantage.

The company's virtual agent total addressable market (TAM) is estimated at approximately $1.5 billion, significantly larger than its current usage revenue, with only about 5% captured by competitors.

Fieldwork indicates customers prefer the company's virtual agents due to its operating-system positioning in the trades.

Max is expected to contribute significantly to subscription revenue, and virtual agents are projected to add substantial usage revenue, making the consensus growth estimate for FY28 appear highly conservative while adding an AI narrative.

The company's end-to-end operating system for the trades positions it well for the rise of AI/agentic workflows, with customers increasingly viewing it as a core infrastructure layer.

There is encouraging early traction for virtual agents and AI tools that automate industry-specific pain points, while customer ROI/engagement remains strong.

The company has a favorable near-term setup into 1Q27 as adoption broadens across the platform.

Third-party reports indicate that GTV growth accelerated in Q1 compared to Q4.

The company is executing cleanly on commercial and AI initiatives, accelerating transaction volumes, and expanding profitability without sacrificing growth.

For bulls, the biggest incremental positives were the re-acceleration of GTV to ~22% y/y (with clear commentary that HVAC OEM weakness isn’t showing up in TTAN’s data), the strong beat and raise on revenue and margins, and concrete progress on AI/Pro and co...
