UBS downgrades HubSpot to neutral, raises price target and cuts 2027 revenue growth forecast

UBS lowered HubSpot's rating to neutral from buy and increased its price target to $310, up from $290. The bank also reduced its constant‑currency revenue growth estimate for fiscal 2027 to 13% from 14.5%, below consensus. The downgrade follows a recent 7% workforce reduction affecting about 660 employees and a stock rally of more than 30% in the prior month.

UBS's downgrade and lower growth outlook may curb HubSpot's recent price surge, while the higher price target reflects a more optimistic valuation multiple. Investors will reassess the company's near‑term demand outlook and AI monetisation prospects.
