Twilio price target raised by $5 at Morgan Stanley, here’s why

Morgan Stanley raised the firm’s price target on Twilio (TWLO) to $80 from $75 and keeps an Overweight rating on the shares. Communication Software has underperformed this year given concerns around opportunities for point products versus platforms, notes the analyst, who remains “most positive” on CCaaS names such as Nice and Five9 (FIVN) and also remains positive on Twilio given it already has a platform. In conjunction with its 2024 preview, the firm is rolling forward price targets to a 2025 basis.
