Salesforce - Analysts' Recommendations and Stock Price Forecast (2025)

MarketBeat calculates consensus analyst ratings for stocks using the most recent rating from each Wall Street analyst that has rated a stock within the last twelve months. Each analyst's rating is normalized to a standardized rating score of 1 (sell), 2 (hold), 3 (buy) or 4 (strong buy). Analyst consensus ratings scores are calculated using the mean average of the number of normalized sell, hold, buy and strong buy ratings from Wall Street analysts. Each stock's consensus analyst rating is derived from its calculated consensus ratings score (0 to .5 = Strong Sell, .5 to 1 = Sell, 1 to 1.5 = Reduce, 1.5 to 2.5 = Hold, 2.5 to 3.0 = Moderate Buy, 3.0 to 3.5 = Buy, >3.5 = Strong Buy). MarketBeat's consensus price targets are a mean average of the most recent available price targets set by each analyst that has set a price target for the stock in the last twelve months. MarketBeat's consensus ratings and consensus price targets may differ from those calculated by other firms due to differences in methodology and available data.

Salesforce
Bull Case

Here are some ways that investors could benefit from investing in Salesforce, Inc.:

Salesforce, Inc. has recently seen a significant increase in stock price, currently trading at $342.90, reflecting strong market interest and investor confidence.
The company has received multiple upgrades from analysts, with a consensus rating of "Moderate Buy" and a price target of $378.86, indicating potential for further price appreciation.
Institutional investors are actively increasing their stakes in Salesforce, Inc., with 80.43% of the stock owned by hedge funds and other institutional investors, suggesting strong institutional confidence in the company's future performance.
Salesforce, Inc. has demonstrated robust growth, with recent reports indicating a 2.2% increase in stock value, showcasing its resilience in the market.
The company maintains a healthy financial position, with a low debt-to-equity ratio of 0.14, indicating that it is not overly reliant on debt to finance its operations, which can be a positive sign for investors.

Salesforce
Bear Case

Investors should be bearish about investing in Salesforce, Inc. for these reasons:

Despite recent stock price increases, the company has a high price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of 56.40, which may indicate that the stock is overvalued compared to its earnings, potentially leading to a price correction.
Insider selling activity has been noted, with key insider Parker Harris selling shares recently, which could signal a lack of confidence in the stock's short-term performance.
The stock has experienced volatility, with a 12-month high of $369.00 and a low of $212.00, indicating that it may be subject to significant price fluctuations, which can be risky for investors.
Analysts have mixed opinions, with eight rating the stock as a hold, suggesting that there may be uncertainty about its future performance.
The company's current ratio of 1.11, while acceptable, indicates that it has just enough current assets to cover its current liabilities, which may raise concerns about liquidity in times of financial stress.
