Quarterly revenue was $280 million (up from $262.87 million a year ago), which beat the analyst consensus estimate of $279.42 million.

Box expects first-quarter earnings of 25 cents-26 cents, versus the 43-cent estimate, and revenue of $274 million-$275 million, versus the $279.5 million estimate.
Wall Street firms rerated Box Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BOX#NYSE">BOX</a>) after its fourth-quarter report:
<ul>
<li>JP Morgan analyst Pinjalim Bora maintained Box with an Overweight and lowered the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/03/44126948/box-shares-fall-after-q4-results-weak-q1-guidance" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">price target from $38 to $37</a>.</li>
<li>Raymond James analyst Brian Peterson reiterated an Outperform on Box with a price target of $38, down from $40.</li>
</ul>
JP Morgan: Box delivered a good end to the year, with forward-looking metrics coming in ahead of guidance and consensus expectations, driven by a solid bookings cadence in addition to a higher volume of early renewals in the quarter. Specifically, calculated billings grew 7% in CC, marking an acceleration relative to last quarter and landing ahead of guidance of low-single-digits, while RPO grew 14% in CC, steady versus last quarter.
Revenue landed essentially in line despite a higher incremental FX headwind, and adjusted EPS was above. DBNRR of 102% was consistent with the prior two quarters, while gross retention remained at 3% for the eleventh consecutive quarter.
Additionally, Box noted strong momentum around its new Enterprise Advanced SKU, underscored by several deals closing in the fourth quarter even though it was generally available at the very end of the quarter. The company realized a 20-40% ACV uplift with that SKU relative to Enterprise Plus deals.
Looking forward, while Box guided to a billings acceleration in fiscal 2026, the revenue guide marked a deceleration by landing in line with street expectations, and adjusted operating margin guidance came in below as the company looks to make &#8220;methodical&#8221; GTM investments to capitalize on the AI-related opportunity ahead.
Overall, Bora noted the fourth quarter as a good end to the year, with Box seeing solid momentum in some of its newer products, positively impacting bookings, and an improving revenue growth glide path through the year.
The analyst&#8217;s medium to long-term thesis remains intact, as he noted that Box positions itself as the unifying content layer between collaboration tools and enterprise applications. Box also utilizes generative AI to help its customers unlock value from the vast array of enterprise content within Box.
Bora projected first-quarter revenue of $274.52 million and adjusted EPS of $0.25.
Raymond James: Peterson rerated following fourth-quarter results that showed an impressive re-acceleration in billings, although shares traded down after hours on a below consensus margin outlook for fiscal 2026.
With early progress on the Enterprise Advanced Plans diversification of the go-to-market motion and interest in AI functionality, the analyst noted the time is right to redeploy some of the recent margin expansion back into growth.
Box has made tremendous strides in improving its profitability profile over the last several years, and Peterson noted multiple expansions would be more driven by increased confidence in the durability of growth.
Peterson projected first-quarter revenue of $274.21 million and adjusted EPS of $0.25.
Price Action: BOX stock is down 3.79% at $32.20 at the last check on Wednesday.

Wall Street digested mixed economic data after the ISM Services PMI<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/econ-s/25/03/44143666/us-services-sector-unexpectedly-expands-in-february-despite-slowing-job-growth"> price index indicated</a> strong growth in the services sector, but the ADP employment report came in well below forecasts and added the fewest jobs in seven months.

The yield on the 10-year US Treasury note was at 4.23% on Wednesday, trimming declines from the morning after expansion in the services sector, reflected by the ISM PMI easing concerns on lower growth.

This Box Analyst Begins Coverage On A Bullish Note; Here Are Top 5 Initiations For Wednesday

DA Davidson analyst Lucky Schreiner initiates coverage on Box (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BOX#NYSE">BOX</a>) with a Buy rating and announces Price Target of $45.

DA Davidson Initiates Coverage On Box with Buy Rating, Announces Price Target of $45

BofA Securities analyst Michael Funk initiated coverage on Box Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BOX#NYSE">BOX</a>) with a Buy rating and a <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/BOX/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">price target of&nbsp;$40</a>.
The rating implies an upside potential of 24%. As the leading enterprise data repository, Funk considers Box well positioned for AI monetization opportunities as the market transitions from simply storing data and documents to extracting value, insights, and increased productivity by leveraging AI.
Also Read: <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42435733/taiwan-semi-founder-calls-for-new-strategy-after-intel-chiefs-departure" rel="noreferrer noopener">Taiwan Semi Founder Calls For New Strategy After Intel Chief&#8217;s Departure</a>
Moreover, enterprise headwinds (like tighter budgets and right-sized headcount) are fading, yet valuation at 13.4 times Street calendar 2025 free cash flow still reflects an overly bearish view of revenue growth and margin expansion potential given a raft of new product offerings (Box AI Studio, Workflow, Security and Box Doc Gen).
Funk estimates Box&#8217;s Intelligent Content Management (ICM) portfolio will expand the company&#8217;s addressable market to $26 billion. This market is projected to grow at a 13% CAGR through 2028. While this arena is fragmented and includes several large firms, Funk noted Box can carve out a substantial niche based on its entrenched position as an enterprise data repository and compelling AI product roadmap. 
Further, he said the 2024-2027 consensus revenue CAGR of 6.7% (versus BofA at 7.3%) and his growth versus maintenance valuation analysis signals an overly pessimistic view of ICM.
The price target implies a 2025 EV/FCF multiple of 15 times Funk&#8217;s above-street estimate. That compares with the average of 21 times for low-growth software peers and collaboration peers, at a median of 24 times.
Funk projected fourth-quarter revenue of $279.97 million and adjusted EPS of $0.46.
Price Action: BOX stock is up 1.81% at $32.86 at last check Thursday.

Adobe Express And Box Partner To Redefine How Digital Media Is Managed, Created And Shared In The Enterprise; Adobe Express Will Be Generally Available As The Default Image Editor In Box, Empowering Every Box User To Easily Create More Engaging Content Without Leaving Box's Secure Platform

RBC Capital Markets analyst Rishi Jaluria reiterated an Underperform rating and a price target of $21 on Box Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BOX#NYSE">BOX</a>) <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/BOX/analyst-ratings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">after the third-quarter results</a>.
On Tuesday, Box reported earnings of 45 cents per share, which beat the analyst consensus estimate of 42 cents, and revenue of $276 million, which beat the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/12/42303665/box-stock-dips-after-narrow-q3-eps-revenue-beats-details" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">consensus estimate of $275.17 million</a>.
Box sees fourth-quarter revenue of $279 million versus the $278.544 million estimate, and adjusted earnings of 41 cents per share,<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/guidance" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"> in line with estimates</a>.
The analyst says the quarter was mixed, and until further clarity on customer interest in Enterprise Advanced emerges, the company&#8217;s thesis remains unchanged.
Positively, management noted further signs of easing macro headwinds, added the analyst.
The analyst wrote that he is encouraged by the expected 20%-40% pricing uplift for customers upgrading to the new Enterprise Advanced plan, set to launch in January. But widespread enterprise adoption, critical for significant pricing gains, may face delays amid ongoing privacy concerns, noted the analyst.
As a result, Jaluria said he finds it challenging to forecast FY26 acceleration, reinforcing the view that long-term targets remain a best-case scenario.
The analyst said FY25 revenue guidance was raised by $2 million on an as-reported basis, which reflected a net $3 million increase in constant currency after FX changes were factored in.
Despite a lack of significant upside in the third quarter, the guidance increase was encouraging, similar to the second quarter, and suggested improved visibility into the company&#8217;s results.
Investors can gain exposure to the stock via Global X Cloud Computing ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CLOU#NASDAQ">CLOU</a>) and Invesco S&amp;P SmallCap Information Technology ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PSCT#NASDAQ">PSCT</a>).
BOX Price Action: BOX shares are down 7.61% at $31.80 at publication Wednesday.
