The first is improving customer engagement. Its AI-powered customer relationship management platform, Pega Customer Decision Hub, helps hyper-personalize customer experiences. It predicts customer behavior and suggests actions to help employees close sales. Ultimately, it is about improving customer acquisition and retention.<\/p>\n<p>The company also works to help streamline customer service. The Pega Customer Service app improves the efficiency of handling inquiries. It uses AI-powered virtual assistants and industry-specific processes to do this.<\/p>\n<p>The last is boosting efficiency through intelligent automation. The Pega Platform software lets companies analyze and automate their old workflows. The Pega Platform integrates with hundreds of other software applications. Employees can then use it to set up automation within the other types of software they use. Pega will essentially mimic the human action that someone would have needed to perform after this is set up. Customers can also build full-fledged applications using Pega Express.<\/p>\n<p>A key aspect of Pega\u2019s value proposition is that it is &#8220;low-code.&#8221; This means employees can automate processes and build apps without coding knowledge. This can potentially greatly lower the amount that companies pay software developers, who have <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bls.gov\/ooh\/computer-and-information-technology\/software-developers.htm#tab-5\">a median salary of $132,000<\/a>. It also helps reduce the risk of miscommunication across departments. Someone working in human resources can build an application themselves exactly how they want it. They don\u2019t have to worry about a software developer not properly translating their vision into reality.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Pega: Solid Growth Combined With Improving Profitability<\/strong><\/h2>\n<div class=\"content-module \" data-content-module=\"MarketRank\" data-company=\"NASDAQ:PEGA\">\n<div class=\"alignright border rounded\">\n<div class=\"p-2 p-md-3\">\n<div class=\"section-heading align-items-end pt-0\">\n<h3 class=\"h6 my-0 pt-0\" style=\"max-width:calc(100% - 105px);\">Pegasystems MarketRank\u2122 Stock Analysis<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<dl>\n<p><dt><b>Overall MarketRank\u2122<\/b><\/dt>\n<dd class=\"m-0\"><strong>96th Percentile<\/strong><\/dd>\n<\/p>\n<p><dt>Analyst Rating<\/dt>\n<dd class=\"m-0\"><strong class=\"c-green\">Moderate Buy<\/strong><\/dd>\n<\/p>\n<p><dt>Upside\/Downside<\/dt>\n<dd class=\"m-0\"><strong class=\"c-red\">4.8% Downside<\/strong><\/dd>\n<\/p>\n<p><dt>Short Interest Level<\/dt>\n<dd class=\"m-0\"><strong class=\"c-green\">Healthy<\/strong><\/dd>\n<\/p>\n<p><dt>Dividend Strength<\/dt>\n<dd class=\"m-0\"><strong class=\"c-red\">Weak<\/strong><\/dd>\n<\/p>\n<p><dt>Environmental Score<\/dt>\n<dd class=\"m-0\"><strong class=\"c-red\">-0.38<\/strong><\/dd>\n<\/p>\n<div class=\"price-data\">\n<dt>News Sentiment<\/dt>\n<dd class=\"m-0\"><strong class=\"c-green\">0.57<img class=\"media-mentions-image ml-1 ml-md-3\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"80\" height=\"20\" src=\"https:\/\/www.marketbeat.com\/scripts\/MediaMentionsMiniChart.ashx?Prefix=NASDAQ&amp;Symbol=PEGA&amp;v=2\" alt=\"mentions of Pegasystems in the last 14 days\" title=\"Media mentions of Pegasystems in the last 14 days\"\/><\/strong><\/dd>\n<\/div>\n<p><dt>Insider Trading<\/dt>\n<dd class=\"m-0\"><strong class=\"c-red\">Selling Shares<\/strong><\/dd>\n<\/p>\n<p><dt>Proj.

Overall, the company has significant variability in its revenue growth each quarter. However, since Sept. 2023, the company has made significant progress in its profitability. Its last-12-month gross margin increased by over 200 basis points.<\/p>\n<p>Its last-12-month operating margin and net income margin were both around 0% in Sept. 2023. Now, they sit at nearly 12% and over 7%, respectively. Its free cash flow is nearly double year to date in 2024 versus 2023. In Q3 2024, its <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pega.com\/sites\/default\/files\/media\/documents\/2024-10\/q3-2024-investor-deck.pdf\">backlog was also 17% higher<\/a> than a year before. However, since the beginning of 2024, backlog growth has somewhat stagnated.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Pega: Needs Further AI Implementation and Innovation to Win in 2025<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Pega\u2019s ability to have a successful 2025 relies on the bet that enterprises will make strong pushes to implement AI. Given that most still believe we are in the early phases of AI, this is likely to be the case. Much of Ives\u2019s positivity on these AI names comes from his belief that AI is still \u201cin the second inning\u201d of its journey.<\/p>\n<p>Another key component of Pega\u2019s success will be its ability to continue innovating and creating products that customers can get more value from. The company\u2019s\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.businesswire.com\/news\/home\/20241119512444\/en\/Pega-Launches-Gen-AI-Capabilities-to-Unlock-Rapid-Digital-Transformation\">GenAI Blueprint tool<\/a> is an example of how it did this in 2024. The tool allows companies to analyze their legacy processes and rethink how they are set up.<\/p>\n<p>Companies define the problem they want to solve and input legacy data. Using industry best practices, Pega uses AI to create starting points for building a new application. It then walks the user through the process of building the application and what specific things it will automate. The new blueprint feature\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.pega.com\/gartner-lcap-2024\">helped Gartner name Pega<\/a> a leader for Enterprise Low-code Application Platforms (LCAP).<\/p>\n<p>Pega has a lot going for it, including improving profitability, technology leadership, and being in the early stages of the AI movement. It is also trading at a middle-of-the-pack forward price-to-earnings ratio of 32x versus competitors. It certainly wouldn\u2019t be crazy to see Pegasystems have another strong year in 2025.<\/p>\n<p>Before you consider Pegasystems, you&#8217;ll want to hear this.<\/p>\n<p>MarketBeat keeps track of Wall Street&#8217;s top-rated and best performing research analysts and the stocks they recommend to their clients on a daily basis.
