JPMorgan cuts Monday.com to Neutral on slowing growth

JPMorgan downgraded Monday.com to Neutral, citing slowing growth and customer acquisition challenges. The bank set a $87 price target for December 2027. Analyst Samik Chatterjee noted a decline in new annual recurring revenue and longer sales cycles, partly due to a 20% workforce reduction. AI products contributed 17% of new ARR but less than 1% of total revenue. The stock closed at $79.05 on Monday, down 5.5%.
