On June 2nd, Citi analyst Tyler Radke lowered the price target on Elastic NV. (NYSE: ESTC) to $125.00 (from $160.00) while maintaining a 'Buy' rating. The price target cut follows Elastic's mixed fourth quarter results, particularly weak performance in the federal sector that led to a smaller-than-expected earnings beat.
