On September 9, Cloudflare, Inc. rose 3.08% in regular trading, trading at $287.52 per share, with turnover of approximately $304 million. The stock continued its upward momentum driven by a series of AI-related product announcements.
On the news front, Cloudflare recently launched multiple AI security products in collaboration with OpenAI, including AI-powered vulnerability detection tools. These releases extend the company's strategic direction of embedding AI capabilities into its security platform. The product rollout follows a strong second-quarter earnings report, in which the company raised its full-year guidance citing accelerating AI agent traffic growth. Full-year adjusted EPS is now expected at $1.25 to $1.26, up from a prior forecast of $1.19 to $1.20.
Wall Street has responded favorably, with several investment banks raising their price targets. Oppenheimer lifted its target to $380 from $330, citing further upside from agentic AI traffic growth enabled by Cloudflare's V8 isolate technology. Morgan Stanley raised its target to $370 from $322 while maintaining an Overweight rating, and Mizuho increased its target to $375 from $310. Additionally, Cloudflare secured FedRAMP High authorization in August, opening doors to U.S. federal government contracts.
