Reported Earlier: Watching The Metals Company; Iceberg Research Issues Report On The Company

<p><strong>B of A Securities </strong>analyst Wamsi Mohan revised full-year estimates for <strong>Pure Storage, Inc.</strong> (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PSTG#NYSE">PSTG</a>) ahead of its <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/earnings" rel="noreferrer noopener">earnings release on May 28</a>.</p>
<p>The analyst forecasts first quarter fiscal 2026 revenue and EPS at $772 million and 26 cents, respectively, slightly ahead of Street expectations of $770 million and 25 cents.</p>
<p>The analyst highlighted that the first quarter is typically the company&#8217;s weakest from a seasonal perspective. Historically, since 2016, the first quarter has shown an average sequential revenue decline of 16%.</p>
<p><strong><em>Also Read: <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/25/05/45626048/why-marvells-ai-revenue-could-top-4-billion-by-2025-analyst-explains" rel="noreferrer noopener">Why Marvell&#8217;s AI Revenue Could Top $4 Billion By 2025, Analyst Explains</a></em></strong></p>
<p>Mohan sees a more moderate 12% quarter/quarter (Q/Q) decline, slightly above typical seasonality, reflecting continued momentum from FlashBlade/E adoption.</p>
<p>Despite the continued adoption of FlashBlade/E, which is expected to negatively impact product margins in the first fiscal quarter, the analyst forecasts an operating margin of 10.7%.</p>
<p>This is higher than both the Street&#8217;s estimate of 10.6% and the company&#8217;s guidance of 10.4%. The analyst noted that the primary driver for this stronger-than-expected operating margin is robust subscription margins.</p>
<p>Also, the analyst estimates the second quarter revenue to be $835 million, slightly below the Street estimate of $839 million.</p>
<p>The analyst expects the recent weakness in NAND pricing to support margin expansion in the second and third quarters. PSTG typically prebuys raw NAND during weakness in NAND pricing, and the analyst expects some offset to margins from this.</p>
<p>The analyst anticipates PSTG to reiterate its full-year operating margin guidance of 17%.</p>
<p>Mohan expects an enterprise IT spending pause in the second and third quarters of 2025 due to macro uncertainty, broadly impacting IT hardware but especially storage (due to deferrable purchases). Increased competition from <strong>Dell Technologies Inc.&#8217;s</strong> (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DELL#NYSE">DELL</a>) new products and aggressive pricing is also expected to limit the upside in the storage industry.</p>
<p>Apart from this, Mohan revised EPS for FY27 to $2.07 (from $2.06) and FY28 to $2.46 (from $2.49 earlier).</p>
<p>The analyst states the upside risks to the price forecast include a faster commercial segment recovery, lower flash costs, quicker supply chain recovery, and unexpected market share gains.</p>
<p>The downside risks are an extended economic slowdown, rising costs, intense competition from established vendors (<strong>NetApp, Inc.</strong> (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ntap#NASDAQ">NTAP</a>), Dell-EMC, <strong>Hewlett Packard Enterprise</strong> (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HPE#NYSE">HPE</a>)) and private companies, enterprise migration to the public cloud, execution challenges from high growth, and potential erosion of its software competitive advantage.</p>
<p>The analyst maintained a Neutral rating with a price forecast of $73 as product growth has yet to re-accelerate, hyperscaler deals remain a future catalyst, and competitive pressure from HDD and ongoing <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/PSTG/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">investments present margin risk</a>.</p>
<p>Investors can gain exposure to the stock via&nbsp;<strong>First Trust Cloud Computing ETF</strong> (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SKYY#NASDAQ">SKYY</a>) and&nbsp;<strong>Collaborative Investment Series Trust Mohr Company Nav ETF</strong> (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CNAV#BATS">CNAV</a>).</p>

Analyst Expectations For Ambarella's Future

<p><strong>Renasant's</strong> (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RNST#NYSE">RNST</a>) short percent of float has fallen 5.7% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has <strong>3.77 million shares sold short</strong>, which is 4.8% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, <strong>it would take traders 2.9 days to cover their short positions on average.</strong></p>
<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
<p>Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.</p>
<p>Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.</p>

<h3>Comparing Renasant's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
<p>Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.</p>
<p>According to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/">Benzinga Pro</a>, Renasant's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 5.02%, which means the company has <strong>less</strong> short interest than most of its peers.</p>

How Is The Market Feeling About Renasant?

<p>In the current session, the stock is trading at $165.07, after a <strong>0.62%</strong> increase. Over the past month, <strong>Sea Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SE#NYSE">SE</a>)</strong> stock increased by <strong>23.26%</strong>, and in the past year, by <strong>142.50%</strong>. With performance like this, long-term shareholders are optimistic but others are more likely to look into the price-to-earnings ratio to see if the stock might be overvalued.</p>
<p>
</p><p><img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1748372425_0.png" alt="Past Year Chart" /></p>

<h3>Sea P/E Compared to Competitors</h3>
<p>The P/E ratio is used by long-term shareholders to assess the company's market performance against aggregate market data, historical earnings, and the industry at large. A lower P/E could indicate that shareholders do not expect the stock to perform better in the future or it could mean that the company is undervalued. </p>
<p>Compared to the aggregate P/E ratio of <strong>13.6</strong> in the Entertainment industry, Sea Inc. has a higher P/E ratio of <strong>114.73</strong>. Shareholders might be inclined to think that Sea Inc. might perform better than its industry group. It's also possible that the stock is overvalued. </p>
<p>
</p><p><img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1748372425_1.png" alt="Guage" /></p>

<p>In summary, while the price-to-earnings ratio is a valuable tool for investors to evaluate a company's market performance, it should be used with caution. A low P/E ratio can be an indication of undervaluation, but it can also suggest weak growth prospects or financial instability. Moreover, the P/E ratio is just one of many metrics that investors should consider when making investment decisions, and it should be evaluated alongside other financial ratios, industry trends, and qualitative factors. By taking a comprehensive approach to analyzing a company's financial health, investors can make well-informed decisions that are more likely to lead to successful outcomes. </p>
