Where Will Confluent Stock Be in 3 Years?
It has been just under four years since Confluent (NASDAQ: CFLT) made its stock market debut in June 2021. A look at its stock price chart will show that investors in the data streaming specialist have endured a difficult time since November of that same year. Confluent stock was in fine form in 2021 following its initial public offering. However, like many other young tech stocks in late 2021, the stock price began a downhill run late in the year. Some of these stocks eventually recovered. In Confluent's case, the stock lost 46% of its value since its initial public offering (IPO) and 74% when compared to its all-time high. Where to invest $1,000 right now? Our analyst team just revealed what they believe are the 10 best stocks to buy right now. Learn More » Let's check why that has been the case and see if this cloud computing stock has the ability to regain its mojo and jump higher over the next three years. Confluent's expensive valuation has been the stock's undoing Confluent was trading at a whopping 37 times sales in 2021, which means that it needed to maintain high growth rates to justify its rich valuation. However, its sales growth rates have been dropping over the years, as we can see from the table below. Data source: Confluent quarterly reports. The reduction in Confluent's top-line growth is a big reason why the stock has fallen out of investors' favor. As a result, it is now trading at just under 8 times sales, which is lower than its five-year average price-to-sales ratio of 12. Another thing worth noting is that Confluent's sales multiple is now in line with the U.S. technology sector's average sales multiple. Buying Confluent at its current valuation could turn out to be a smart long-term move, as the company is now sitting on an added catalyst in the form of artificial intelligence (AI). Confluent's cloud-based data streaming platform is used by customers to bring data out of silos and connect it in real time to make decisions quickly. The company's platform finds applications in multiple areas such as inventory management, fraud detection, and customer service. It's now being applied in generative AI and agentic AI applications as well, as Confluent's platform allows customers to use relevant data in real time for training large language models (LLMs) and AI agents. As a result, Confluent is now winning a bigger share of customers' wallets, along with bringing new customers into its fold, which should set the company up for robust long-term growth. A massive addressable market points toward better times for the company Confluent now sees its addressable market exceeding $100 billion this year. That's double its estimated addressable market four years ago. Even better, the accelerated growth in its customer base suggests that it is well on track to capitalize on this massive opportunity. Confluent's overall customer base jumped by 20% year over year in the first quarter of 2025. That was a major improvement over the 9% year-over-year increase in its customer base in the year-ago period. Importantly, Confluent is gaining more business from its existing customers. This can be judged from the company's dollar-based net retention rate of 117%, a metric that compares its annual recurring revenue (ARR) from customers at the end of a quarter to the ARR from the same customer cohort in the year-ago period. So, an ARR of more than 100% suggests that existing customers are spending more money with Confluent. The higher spending by Confluent's older customers is also driving a solid bump in its margins. The company's non- GAAP operating margin increased by six percentage points year over year in Q1. This explains why the company's non-GAAP earnings increased by 60% from the year-ago period to $0.08 per share. The company has guided for $0.36 per share in earnings for 2025, which points toward a 24% increase from last year. However, don't be surprised to see Confluent doing better than that following the healthy increase in Q1, especially considering the pace at which it is adding new customers and encouraging existing ones to spend more money. Not surprisingly, analysts are forecasting an acceleration in Confluent's bottom-line growth over the next couple of years. Data by YCharts. The stronger growth in Confluent's earnings in 2026 and 2027 points toward better times for the stock over the next three years, as the market could reward this impressive bottom-line jump with healthy gains. As such, buying Confluent right now makes sense from a long-term point of view. The correction in the company's stock price since its IPO has made it a better buy, considering its lucrative end-market opportunity and bright prospects. Should you invest $1,000 in Confluent right now? Before you buy stock in Confluent, consider this: The Motley Fool Stock Advisor analyst team just identified what they believe are the 10 best stocks for investors to buy now… and Confluent wasn't one of them.

The dividend will be payable on July 15, 2025, to shareholders of record at the close of business on June 30, 2025. This monthly cash dividend is designated as an "eligible dividend" for Canadian income tax purposes. Credit Facility extension Tamarack has access to a covenant-based $875MM revolving lending facility (the "Credit Facility") that was previously maturing on April 30, 2027. In June 2025, the Credit Facility was amended primarily to extend the maturity date of the facility by one year to April 30, 2028. As of June 13, 2025, Tamarack had access to over $400MM of undrawn credit under the three-year Credit Facility and an uncommitted accordion feature that provides the Company with the ability to access an incremental $125MM million of secured debt, subject to certain conditions, including approvals from the lending syndicate. About Tamarack Valley Energy Ltd. Tamarack is an oil and gas exploration, and production company committed to creating long-term value for its shareholders through sustainable free funds flow generation, financial stability and the return of capital. The Company has an extensive inventory of low-risk, oil development drilling locations focused primarily on Clearwater and Charlie Lake plays in Alberta while also pursuing EOR upside in these core areas. For more information, please visit the Company's website at Forward Looking Information This press release contains certain forward-looking information (collectively referred to herein as "forward- looking statements") within the meaning of applicable Canadian securities laws. Forward-looking statements are often, but not always, identified by the use of words such as "guidance", "outlook", "anticipate", "target", "plan", "continue", "intend", "consider", "estimate", "expect", "may", "will", "should", "could" or similar words suggesting future outcomes. More particularly, this press release contains forward- looking statements concerning: Tamarack's business strategy, objectives, strength and focus; the future declaration and payment of dividends and the timing and amount thereof; and available credit capacity under the Credit Facility. Future dividend payments and share buybacks, if any, and the level thereof, are uncertain, as the Company's return of capital framework and the funds available for such activities from time to time is dependent upon, among other things, free funds flow financial requirements for the Company's operations and the execution of its growth strategy, fluctuations in working capital and the timing and amount of capital expenditures, debt service requirements and other factors beyond the Company's control. Further, the ability of Tamarack to pay dividends and buyback shares will be subject to applicable laws (including the satisfaction of the solvency test contained in applicable corporate legislation) and contractual restrictions contained in the instruments governing its indebtedness, including its Credit Facility. The forward-looking statements contained in this document are based on certain key expectations and assumptions made by Tamarack, including those relating to: the business plan of Tamarack; the timing of and success of future drilling, development and completion activities; the geological characteristics of Tamarack's properties; the continued successful integration of acquired assets into Tamarack's operations; prevailing commodity prices, price volatility, price differentials and the actual prices received for the Company's products; the availability and performance of drilling rigs, facilities, pipelines and other oilfield services; the timing of past operations and activities in the planned areas of focus; the drilling, completion and tie-in of wells being completed as planned; the performance of new and existing wells; the application of existing drilling and fracturing techniques; prevailing weather and break-up conditions; royalty regimes and exchange rates; impact of inflation on costs; the application of regulatory and licensing requirements; the continued availability of capital and skilled personnel; the ability to maintain or grow the banking facilities; the accuracy of Tamarack's geological interpretation of its drilling and land opportunities, including the ability of seismic activity to enhance such interpretation; and Tamarack's ability to execute its plans and strategies.

By their very nature, forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties (both general and specific) that could cause actual events or outcomes to differ materially from those anticipated or implied by such forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to: risks with respect to unplanned third party pipeline outages and risks relating to inclement and severe weather events and natural disasters, such as fire, drought and flooding, including in respect of safety, asset integrity and shutting-in production; the risk that future dividend payments are reduced, suspended or cancelled; unforeseen difficulties in integrating of recently acquired assets into Tamarack's operations; incorrect assessments of the value of benefits to be obtained from acquisitions and exploration and development programs; risks associated with the oil and gas industry in general (e.g. operational risks in development, exploration and production; and delays or changes in plans with respect to exploration or development projects or capital expenditures); commodity prices, including the impact of the actions of OPEC and OPEC+ members; changes in legislation, including but not limited to tariffs, tax laws, royalties and environmental regulations (including greenhouse gas emission reduction requirements and other decarbonization or social policies and including uncertainty with respect to the interpretation of omnibus Bill C-59 and the related amendments to the Competition Act (Canada)); the imposition or expansion of tariffs imposed by domestic and foreign governments or the imposition of other restrictive trade measures, retaliatory or countermeasures implemented by such governments, including the introduction of regulatory barriers to trade and the potential effect on the demand and/or market price for the Company's products and/or otherwise adversely affects the Company; the uncertainty of estimates and projections relating to production, cash generation, costs and expenses, including increased operating and capital costs due to inflationary pressures; health, safety, litigation and environmental risks; access to capital; and pandemics. In addition, ongoing military actions between Russia and Ukraine and the recent crisis in Israel and Gaza have the potential to threaten the supply of oil and gas from those regions. The long-term impacts of the actions between these nations remains uncertain.

Inuit-led cruise sets a new standard for Arctic tourism
Mariah Erkloo remembers as a child watching massive, gleaming vessels glide into her hamlet of Pond Inlet, Nunavut, bringing strangers to her Arctic home for a few hours before vanishing over the horizon. It wasn't an altogether positive experience, she recalls. 'You just feel their presence and that's it,' she said. 'It never felt like there would be any benefit or like a mutual relationship in that.' Arctic cruise tourism has grown rapidly in recent years. In Nunavut, just a few ships used to visit, but now places like Pond Inlet can see up to 30 cruise ships in one short season between July and September. International cruise operators typically sell and finalize their itineraries, then reach out to communities afterwards, asking them to organize events and tours for the visitors — sometimes at the last minute. 'There are examples in the past where companies are literally like, 'We're coming to your community on this day and we want you to do this for us,' which is insane to me,' said Alex McNeil, chief expedition officer at HX, a UK-based cruise operator. This summer, Erkloo is helping McNeil and HX flip the script. Inuit communities are not just greeting tourists, but leading how the local experience is planned from the start. 'The majority of the industry, including us, are far from achieving what's possible through expedition travel,' said Alex McNeil, CXO at HX. 'We're trying to be further along on that journey than others, but it's still a work in progress.' 'We want more people involved and we want to impact more people and make sure we are a part of the conversation,' said Erkloo, who joined the HX team last summer to co-develop the project. She is a sociology student at UBC who returns home in the spring. HX, formerly known as Hurtigruten Expeditions after its parent company, the Norwegian national ferry operator, is the first major international cruise operator to hand over control of shore excursions to the communities themselves. McNeil, who has worked in tourism for a long time, recalls visiting Grise Fiord as a junior expedition guide in the late 2000s, when the mayor and residents welcomed the cruise guests with traditional food, games and performances. 'It wasn't a business transaction,' McNeil said. 'It was like, 'You're coming to our home, our shores and we're going to open our doors and just welcome you.'' But when the mayor asked the expedition leader where to send the invoice for their hospitality, he was told there was no budget. The community, not the cruise line, was left to cover the costs. 'I had never been so embarrassed and ashamed in my life,' McNeil said. 'There was such a disparity in resources and no compromise.' More than a decade later, McNeil is overseeing HX's effort to do things differently. Flipping the script Traditionally, Arctic cruises visiting Nunavut communities operated the same way — cruise operators typically paid a base fee to the local hamlet. In exchange, visitors were offered a walking tour and a cultural performance at the community hall. The economic impact was minimal and the experience, though genuine, was not shaped by local priorities, McNeil said. Under the new model, activities will look a little different: guided hikes, Arctic char fishing, community bingo, art workshops or a small-group conversation with community members will be offered instead. From the outset, the company is co-creating itineraries with communities, including Pond Inlet, Gjøa Haven and Cambridge Bay. 'The majority of the industry, including us, are far from achieving what's possible through expedition travel,' McNeil said. 'We're trying to be further along on that journey than others, but it's still a work in progress.' Last summer, HX ran pilot projects in Pond Inlet to test what it would look like if elders and residents shaped the cruise excursions — choosing the activities, setting the pace and deciding who would be involved. 'It feels like now the communities are like, 'Okay, these are things we want to do,'' Erkloo said. Communities established their own limits on visitor numbers, duration of the excursion and the types of experiences they felt were both authentic and sustainable to share. The company organized open community meetings where anyone could attend, not just community leaders or business owners. 'We just kind of opened up the space,' McNeil said. 'We want to invite them to add input and know what pressure points are [there]? What are areas you think are beneficial? What works and what doesn't?' Arctic's tourism boom The concept " last chance tourism ' has become a significant driver of demand in the Arctic, with many visitors motivated by the desire to see melting sea ice, threatened wildlife and unique Indigenous cultures before they are irrevocably changed. In recent years, Inuit communities near Pond Inlet have taken a stronger role in shaping tourism activity, particularly as they pushed for changes to protect narwhals in Eclipse Sound after hunters and trappers reported sharp declines linked to heavy ship traffic. In response, cruise operators under the Association of Arctic Expedition Cruise Operators have agreed to avoid Eclipse Sound during peak narwhal migration, opting for less sensitive routes instead. Christopher Debicki, vice president of policy development and counsel at Oceans North, a Canadian charity for Arctic and Atlantic marine conservation said while cruise and expedition travel are increasing, he rejects the idea that the Arctic is already lost. "It's not too late, these places are still very, very vibrant both from a human perspective and from a biological perspective,' Debicki said. 'We're working really, really hard with community partners to make sure that's not the case, to make sure they stay really productive.' Debicki said historically, ship noise in the region was rare, but recent increases in mining and cruise traffic have led to more repetitive noise, which interrupts narwhal behavior and makes hunting more difficult for local communities. Oceans North is working with the Arctic cruise association and the Scripps Institute of Oceanography to better understand how underwater noise affects marine animals in the eastern Canadian Arctic. By using acoustic monitoring and working in close collaboration with Inuit hunters in Pond Inlet, their team aims to shape policies that protect wildlife and the people who depend on them. 'If we make the right choices, they're going to stay vibrant for this generation and for future generations,' Debicki said. All revenue from shore excursions will go directly to the communities. 'If the tour costs, say, $200, we leave $200 in Nunavut,' he said. The company earns its profits by selling their premium-priced packages, often marketed as once-in-a-lifetime Arctic journeys. 'We're selling trips that are like $20,000. If we can get people to go on those trips, we're doing just fine,' McNeil said. McNeil is quick to mention that not all companies are falling short of delivering responsible programs in the Arctic. He pointed to Adventure Canada, a Canadian-owned operator, as a company that has set a high standard for community-focused Arctic tourism. However, their scale is smaller than HX — they run a single, smaller ship seasonally. Most expedition cruise ships in the Arctic carry between 100 and 200 guests. HX operates two vessels on the Northwest Passage that can each accommodate up to 500 passengers — more than double the industry standard, though they typically sail with 300 to 400 guests. Larger ships, like the Crystal Serenity, have sailed the Northwest Passage in 2016 with about 1,000 passengers and more than 600 crew raising concerns about overwhelming small hamlets along the route. To avoid swamping communities, HX worked with the communities to break large groups into much smaller, more personalized excursions. Each excursion is limited to about 10 to 12 guests. 'If we're just putting more people, we're probably contributing toward negative outcomes, rather than creating positive change,' McNeil said. Their approach is intended to spread economic benefits more widely, ease the strain on local resources and foster more meaningful exchanges between visitors and hosts, McNeil said. McNeil said as a major industry player, they feel a responsibility to invest in local development, skills training and mentorship. By proving the concept works, they hope communities can adopt the model to offer tours and experiences to any cruise line that arrives in Nunavut. Beginning in summer 2025, the operator will offer the community-led excursions as part of its 25-day Northwest Passage cruises between Greenland and Alaska. 'I just feel like we were planting seeds and then we're going to see what comes out of that,' Erkloo said. 'Right now, we're at the perfect turning point and it's really exciting for me.'
