UiPath's AI Pivot Is Underway. Time to Buy the Stock?

UiPath is looking toward artificial intelligence to help reinvigorate its growth. The robotic automation specialist says its AI solutions have been gaining momentum. The stock is cheap, but the company needs to speed up growth to jumpstart its stock. 10 stocks we like better than UiPath › With the advent of artificial intelligence (AI), UiPath (NYSE: PATH) has had to make a significant technological pivot. But this isn't the first time the company has undertaken a major technological shift. It began by outsourcing software services and transitioned into a leading robotic process automation (RPA) company. RPA uses software bots to handle repetitive human tasks, and thus is used to help automate processes such as invoice and payroll processing and data entry. Today, the company is looking to become an end-to-end automation platform that integrates AI agents and robots into a single unified platform. It wasn't long ago that UiPath was growing rapidly, posting a 31% revenue increase for the quarter that ended Jan. 31, 2024. Today, the company is still growing, just at a much more modest pace, with revenue rising 6% in its fiscal 2026 first quarter to $357 million. Its annual recurring revenue (ARR) climbed 12% year over year to $1.7 billion. ARR measures yearly billed amounts from subscription licenses as well as maintenance and support obligations, and it's an important metric for predicting revenue growth. It doesn't include perpetual licenses or professional services. It saw new net ARR of $27 million in the quarter. The company has seen strength in the public sector, particularly with the federal government. This included a significant win with the Air Force to support its digital transformation efforts. Dollar-based net retention was 108% on a trailing-12-month basis, down slightly from 110% last quarter. Numbers above 100% show spending growth by existing clients after churn. Customers with $100,000 or more in ARR increased 13% to 2,365, and those with $1 million or more rose 10% to 316. UiPath finished the quarter with $1.6 billion in cash and marketable securities and no debt. It generated $116 million in operating cash flow and bought back 21.9 million shares in the quarter. On its earnings call, management called its agentic automation platform the most successful product introduction in its history. While still early, both its agentic orchestration platform, called Maestro, and its Agent Builder, which helps users develop and deploy AI agents, have seen strong early adoption. It plans to implement a new consumption-based pricing model for its agentic solutions. It said its first deal since its AI products became generally available was with a Fortune 15 global health company that signed a multi-year, multimillion-dollar expansion for UiPath's Maestro and Agent Builder. Despite the early success, the company does not expect its AI solutions to be material contributors to revenue this fiscal year. However, it is looking for them to set the stage for meaningful new revenue streams in fiscal 2027 and beyond. The company has forecast fiscal second-quarter revenue in the range of $345 million to $350 million. It guided for ARR to be between $1.715 billion and $1.72 billion. For its full fiscal year, management forecasts revenue to be between $1.549 billion and $1.554 billion, up from a prior outlook of $1.525 billion to $1.53 billion. It projects ARR to be between $1.82 billion and $1.825 billion, up from its previous outlook for $1.816 billion to $1.821 billion. Shares trade at a forward price-to-sales ratio of 4.3 based on this year's analyst estimates, but after taking out its $1.6 billion in net cash, it trades at a ratio of enterprise value to forward sales of only 3.3. That's very cheap for a profitable software company with a high gross margin (85% last quarter) and solid cash flow. That said, tech investors tend to be all about growth, so value names in tech often struggle to gain traction. UiPath's new AI solutions will really need to reinvigorate revenue growth for the stock to work from here. Agentic AI -- systems capable of autonomous decision-making and actions -- is a big opportunity, and the company's ability to use both RPA and AI agents depending on the situation could be a differentiator. Still, a lot of companies are currently pursuing agentic AI, so this is likely to be a competitive field. Given UiPath's valuation and the company's proven ability to transform its business previously, I think the stock looks attractive at current levels. However, I would still consider it a bit more speculative in nature, given that its AI strategy has yet to be proven, and a lot is riding on it.

Indico Data unveils AI-driven Agentic Decisioning Platform for insurers

Insurtech company Indico Data has launched a new Agentic Decisioning Platform designed specifically for the insurance sector. This suite of AI agents and agentic solutions is designed to augment underwriting and claims decisioning in commercial insurance, the company said. The platform includes Agent Studio, Agent Builder and Agent Workflow Canvas, and has been developed specifically for commercial insurers. The platform will allow carriers to replicate human decision-making in complex workflows including triage, analysis and validation of submissions, the company claims. Indico noted that the platform has led to a more than 80% reduction in manual processing time, a four-times increase in submission handling capacity, and 85% faster turnaround in underwriting and claims processing among insurers that have adopted the technology. The Agentic Decisioning Platform comprises specialised Extraction & Classification, Summarisation, Validation, Data Enrichment and Web Research agents. These agents are intended to handle insurance tasks such as data retrieval, document summarisation, accuracy checks, contextual data integration and web-based information gathering. Agent Builder allows insurers to create customised agents for tasks such as field extraction, classification, validation and summarisation using pre-built templates. The Agentic Workflow Canvas enables users to assemble these agents into complete decision-making workflows, with support for conditional logic, parallel execution and data routing. Current applications include underwriting submission triage, summarisation of multi-year loss run data, ingestion of broker communications, delegated authority bordereaux processing and early-stage claims triage. The Agentic Decisioning Platform is available as part of Indico's Decision Automation Platform. Indico Data CEO Tom Wilde said: 'This is the moment the industry shifts from automation to autonomy. Agentic Decisioning isn't just about efficiency – it is about enabling the insurance enterprise to operate with real-time intelligence, at scale, across every submission. We built this for AI impact, not AI experimentation. 'The Indico platform is the foundation for those ready to lead – not just survive – the next decade of insurance.' In April, Indico Data launched its Ready for Guidewire validated accelerator for ClaimCenter on Guidewire Cloud, available via the Guidewire Marketplace.

UiPath (NYSE:PATH) Announces Q1 Results With US$357 Million Revenue and Updated Guidance

UiPath announced its first quarter earnings on May 29, 2025, reporting revenue growth to $357 million and an improved net loss. The company issued guidance for the second quarter and full fiscal year, targeting revenues up to $1.554 billion. This may have added positive momentum to the stock, which rose 9%, in line with robust performance seen broadly in the Nasdaq, propelled by strong tech earnings and a general market rally. The product developments like the launch of UiPath's next-generation platform may also have bolstered investor confidence amid the technology sector's recent surge. We've identified 2 weaknesses with UiPath (at least 1 which can't be ignored) and understanding the impact should be part of your investment process. Uncover 19 companies that survived and thrived after COVID and have the right ingredients to survive Trump's tariffs. The recent announcement from UiPath regarding their first-quarter earnings marks an important moment for the company. With revenue reaching US$357 million and an improved net loss, it seems their focus on AI-driven products and strategic partnerships like those with Microsoft and Deloitte is beginning to make an impact. These efforts, aimed at boosting customer relationships and expanding market opportunities, are expected to support future revenue growth and improve net margins. However, geopolitical and macroeconomic challenges, including FX headwinds and SaaS transition pressures, could impact these positive trends. Over the past year, UiPath's total shareholder return reached 7.21%, which falls below the US Software industry return of 17.2% and the US market return of 11.5%. Analysts have set a consensus price target of US$12.13, slightly above the current share price of US$11.82, indicating a modest potential upside of 2.6%. This small gap suggests that the market has appropriately priced in the company's prospects amidst sector performance. Looking ahead, the developments outlined in their earnings release may enhance revenue forecasts, although they are forecasted to remain unprofitable for the next three years. The company's strategic actions, such as go-to-market restructuring and launching new products like Agent Builder, are seen as efforts to bolster revenue growth despite external uncertainties. The stock's recent upward movement aligns with industry trends and may reflect increased investor confidence in UiPath's growth trajectory, though significant challenges remain.
