On July 13, Workday rose 5.01% in regular trading, trading at $145.91/share, with turnover of $116 million. The gain largely recovers the 5.53% single-day decline suffered on July 9 when the software sector experienced broad selling pressure.
The rebound was driven by a collective recovery across enterprise software stocks, with sector peer Salesforce also gaining 5.21% on the session. The software sector has seen cumulative year-to-date declines generally exceeding 35%, weighed down by persistent concerns over AI disruption to traditional software business models. However, Workday's fundamental backdrop remains supportive following its Q1 earnings beat in May, which showed subscription revenue growing 14.3% year-over-year and AI intelligent agent customer count more than doubling from the prior quarter. Analysts from multiple firms maintain overweight ratings, with a consensus price target of approximately $173.56, suggesting meaningful upside from current levels. The combination of deeply compressed valuations and solid operational execution has attracted dip-buying capital into the name.
