Okta Earnings: Security Breach Magnifies Macroeconomic Headwinds; Weak Fiscal 2025 Guidance

We are reducing our fair value estimate for no-moat Okta to $80 from $85 after the firm’s strong third-quarter performance was more than offset by its weak preliminary guidance for fiscal 2025. While this quarter’s financial results highlighted solid sales and profitability expansion, we remain concerned about the potential financial blowback to the firm following a security breach Okta disclosed in October.
