Veeva Systems Inc. (NYSE:VEEV) is a prominent player in the cloud-based software industry, primarily serving the life sciences sector.

Veeva's competitors include companies like Oracle and SAP, which also provide enterprise software solutions.

Veeva's sales growth is stabilizing in the mid-teens, and the company is returning to EBITDA margins exceeding 40%, as highlighted by Stephens. This strong financial performance is a key factor in the bullish outlook. The company's strategy to expand into new markets could further enhance its valuation multiple, which is currently below its 10-year average.
The stock has shown strong performance over the past six months, partly due to positive feedback on the Vault transition. Despite a recent decrease of $1.87 or -0.84%, VEEV's market capitalization remains robust at approximately $35.66 billion. The stock has fluctuated between $218.11 and $225.97 today, with a trading volume of 1,103,415 shares.
Over the past year, VEEV has experienced a high of $258.93 and a low of $170.25. This range reflects the stock's volatility and potential for growth. Stephens believes that Veeva's strategic initiatives could elevate its valuation back towards its historical average, supporting the optimistic price target of $280.
