Separately, brokerages issued a consensus "Hold" rating, with nineteen analysts recommending hold and eight suggesting buy, alongside an average 12-month price target cited at $148.74, and coverage noted the stock's move relative to its 200-day moving average following July's quarterly results, which had beaten EPS estimates.

Last earnings call, Jul 30, 2026 AI summary
- What they said
- Check Point reported Q2 2026 results roughly in line with expectations: total revenue of $674 million (1% growth year-over-year), subscription revenue growth of 12% to $333 million, product revenues down 14% due to lower demand for firewall appliances and go-to-market disruption. Non-GAAP EPS of $2.55 exceeded guidance and adjusted free cash flow was $161 million (24% of revenues). Deferred revenue increased 7% to $2.025 billion and Remaining Performance Obligation (RPO) grew 7% to $2.55 billion (current RPO $1.6 billion, +4% YoY). Management reiterated full-year 2026 guidance, characterized Q3 as a trough and expects a stronger Q4 and back-to-growth in product revenues in Q4. The company announced a major hiring campaign (~300 go-to-market hires by year-end) to expand sales capacity (impact expected in 2027) and introduced an AI Network Firewall as part of an AI Defense Plane and broader open-platform strategy (including SASE readiness and NVIDIA collaboration). Management emphasized prevention-first security, the accelerating threat environment driven by AI (democratization of attacker capabilities), and investments in next-generation AI-driven capabilities and unified management. Management described a stronger qualified pipeline for Q4 but acknowledged internal execution disruption in earlier quarters that pressured appliance/product demand.
- Guidance
- Management reiterated 2026 full-year guidance and expects Q3 to be the trough with a stronger Q4 that supports second-half performance. They expect product revenues to remain pressured in Q3 and return to growth in Q4. The hiring of hundreds of sellers is expected to materially impact results beginning in Q1–Q2 2027; this ramp is not included in 2026 guidance.
- Risks flagged
- Key risks mentioned: internal go-to-market disruption that reduced product (appliance) sales (product revenue down 14% in Q2); softer demand for firewall appliances; high execution risk given Q4 is back-end-loaded (high bar for Q4); timing/billing effects from contract timing (annual vs. quarterly billing); potential margin pressure from planned sales hiring (impact expected in 2027); rapidly evolving AI-driven attacker capabilities that could create unforeseen threats and require continued investment; macro/seasonal timing (summer quarter impacts).
