Autodesk, Inc. (NASDAQ:ADSK) is one of the best technology stocks.

TheFly reported on February 27 that JPMorgan increased its price target for ADSK from $319 to $336 while keeping an Overweight rating on the stock.

Autodesk, Inc. (NASDAQ:ADSK) released its fourth-quarter and full-year fiscal 2026 results on February 26. The company exceeded the high end of guidance in a number of important metrics, including revenue, billings, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP EPS, and free cash flow. Revenue in Q4 jumped 19% year over year, or 14% if the new transaction model was excluded. At the same time, billings increased 33% overall, with a 30% constant-currency rise and 32% if the transaction model was excluded.

During the quarter, the new model generated about $185 million in billings and $137 million in revenue. The GAAP margin was unchanged after a $100 million restructuring charge, but the non-GAAP operating margin increased by 120 basis points to 38%. The corporation repurchased $333 million worth of stock, totaling almost $1.4 billion for the entire year, roughly half of the $972 million in free cash flow for the quarter.

Autodesk predicted fiscal 2027 billings of $8.48–$8.58 billion, revenue of $8.10–$8.17 billion, non-GAAP operating margin of 38.5–39%, and free cash flow of $2.7–$2.8 billion due to expected decreases from the transaction-model tailwind and $135–$160 million in restructuring capital outflows.

Autodesk, Inc. (NASDAQ:ADSK) is a global software company specializing in 3D design, engineering, and entertainment software. Its solutions support architecture, construction, manufacturing, and media industries, enabling professionals to design, visualize, and simulate projects efficiently.

1. Markets diverged during the week. Between the October 23 and October 30 closes, BTC fell 4.78%, the Nasdaq 100 declined 1.98%, and gold and silver dropped 2.72% and 8.59%, respectively. The DAX, KOSPI, Nikkei 225 and Hang Seng advanced. We focus on differences in growth prospects, valuation sensitivity and risk exposures rather than applying a single directional view across assets. 2. Market reactions to Alphabet's and Intel's earnings brought returns on AI investment into focus. Attention is shifting from the scale of capital expenditure to revenue realization, margins and free cash flow. Lower interest rates can ease discount-rate pressure, but a sustained valuation recovery still requires support from both operating performance and financing conditions. 3. The November 3 US midterm elections and November 6 employment report are key events in the coming week. We monitor how post-election fiscal and legislative agendas may affect interest rates, the dollar and industry operating conditions. Our execution priorities are to manage leverage and concentration, retain margin and exit-liquidity buffers, and avoid treating a single political outcome as an automatic trading signal. 4. Following Binance's disclosure of a security incident, industry attention to endpoint protection, access segregation and coordinated incident response has increased. Key assets to monitor: BTC, the Nasdaq 100, crude oil and gold, alongside upcoming earnings from AAPL, AMD, PLTR, ARM, ANET and QCOM.
