Event summary
Wedbush initiated coverage on EPAM Systems (NYSE:EPAM) with a Neutral rating and a $99.00 price target, citing concerns about slowing growth, competitive pressures, and AI cannibalization risk. The firm acknowledged EPAM's strong technical positioning from its software engineering history and early AI adoption but noted that competitors also pursue similar opportunities. Despite these concerns, InvestingPro analysis suggests EPAM may be undervalued, with 12 analysts recently revising earnings upward; however, Goldman Sachs recently downgraded the stock due to spending headwinds.
