Workday shares are tumbling after the company projected slower revenue growth through fiscal 2027 and higher spending to compete in artificial intelligence. The firm now targets about $9.9 billion in fiscal 2027 revenue with 12–13% subscription growth and a 30% operating margin, prompting several Wall Street downgrades. Investors are questioning whether Workday’s AI push and CEO transition will restore faster growth or keep pressure on profits and the stock.
What Could Happen If...
- ▸If Workday’s AI products drive stronger-than-expected customer demand over the next year Revenue growth could move back above the 12–13% range, easing pressure on the share price and supporting the company’s 30% margin goal.
