- 短评：该公司报告了好于预期的业绩，但提到目前的全球宏观环境仍然不确定，在90天内完成交易仍然具有挑战性。由于居高不下的通货膨胀率和居高不下的利率，客户仍在寻求为公司优化成本，因此，这些客户在承诺交易之前会继续仔细审查。客户的这些成本优化策略可能会持续到2023年的剩余时间，预计美联储将在2024年初开始降息。24财年第一季度建议交易区间：150美元至180美元。中性前景。

- Share buyback: board of directors has authorised a $500mn stock repurchase program
- Comment: UiPath delivered strong results in 2Q24, with ARR increasing 25% YoY and net new ARR of 59mn. The company is investing to extend its market leadership, and its board of directors has authorised a $500mn stock repurchase program.

Overall, UiPath is well-positioned for continued growth in the future.

GameStop Corp. (GME)
- 2Q23 Revenue: $1.16B, +38.2% YoY, beat estimates by $20M
- 2Q23 Non-GAAP EPS: -$0.03, beat estimates by $0.11
- 3Q23 Guidance: No guidance provided.
- Comment: GameStop reported a slight increase in sales and a narrower loss for the quarter. The company continues to operate without a CEO since its last quarter, and its CFO, Diana, resigned on August 11. The company has been shifting its business model towards a more online focused model, as its physical store sales faces difficulties in capturing gaming demand. Some videogames saw strong demand over the quarter such as Activision Blizzard’s “Diablo IV” and Electronic Arts’ “F1 23”. However, as more consumers shift their preferences to playing games on smartphones and tablets, alongside the availability of free games, the company will continue to face difficulties in capturing the demand for physical games and consoles in its physical stores, and would also need to continue creating a more competitive edge in the online gaming space. 3Q24 recommended trading range: $16 to $22. Neutral Outlook.
