CyberArk (CYBR - Free Report) closed the most recent trading day at $295.30, moving +0.29% from the previous trading session. The stock's change was less than the S&P 500's daily gain of 0.61%. Meanwhile, the Dow gained 0.97%, and the Nasdaq, a tech-heavy index, added 0.33%.
The maker of software that detects attacks on privileged accounts's shares have seen an increase of 7.96% over the last month, not keeping up with the Computer and Technology sector's gain of 8.6% and outstripping the S&P 500's gain of 5.36%.
The investment community will be paying close attention to the earnings performance of CyberArk in its upcoming release. The company is slated to reveal its earnings on November 13, 2024. In that report, analysts expect CyberArk to post earnings of $0.45 per share. This would mark year-over-year growth of 7.14%. Meanwhile, the Zacks Consensus Estimate for revenue is projecting net sales of $233.9 million, up 22.31% from the year-ago period.
Looking at the full year, the Zacks Consensus Estimates suggest analysts are expecting earnings of $2.29 per share and revenue of $939.08 million. These totals would mark changes of +104.46% and +24.9%, respectively, from last year.
