0034 GMT - Life360's bull at Morgan Stanley stays overweight on the location-app developer despite slashing valuation multiples on the broader de-rating seen among global software stocks. Analyst James Bales now values the stock at 5.5 times sales, down from 13.5 times sales previously. Another factor for Bales is concern over Life360's near-term margin trajectory. However, he stresses that dual-listed Life360 is building for the long term and points out that the company has made significant improvements in scale, value proposition and pricing power. "Any further improvement would be a catalyst for a potentially significant re-rating," he adds. MS cuts its target price 37% to A$30.00. Life360's Australia-listed shares are down 3.4% at A$18.73.
