Fortinet and ServiceNow plunge 22% and 27% as Wall Street stops excusing soft guidance

Fortinet and ServiceNow shares fell sharply on Thursday, as investors punished software companies for soft guidance despite solid quarters. Fortinet dropped about 22% by mid-day. The cybersecurity company beat third-quarter expectations but cut its full-year service revenue guidance to $5.15 billion to $5.17 billion, below the $5.2 billion analysts expected. Bloomberg Intelligence says customers are buying its firewalls but skipping add-on products. Bank of America downgraded the stock to Neutral, and Mizuho cut its target from $160 to $118. ServiceNow fell about 27%. Third-quarter revenue of $4.11 billion edged past estimates, but fourth-quarter guidance of $4.25 billion to $4.26 billion missed the $4.36 billion consensus. The stock is down about 29% this year. CrowdStrike reports on November 25.

Fortinet shares jump 138% as margins hit 29.6% and Q2 revenue reaches $2.05B

Fortinet shareholders who held from the start of the year are up 137.5%, including dividends. The shares cost $79.41 then and trade at $185 now. The Q2 2026 report showed revenue of $2,047.9m and net income of $606.3m. Net margin rose from 27.0% to 29.6%, which backed the bullish view that integrated platforms and recurring services lift profitability. The bull case put fair value at $90.32, assuming 13.1% annual revenue growth. The bear case said $70.25, expecting 9.8% growth and margins falling to 23.9%. At a price-to-earnings ratio near 60, the current price assumes AI data centre spending stays strong. A slowdown in that spending is the key risk.
