Buoyed by the strong results, management raised its full-year revenue guidance to a midpoint of $1.16 billion.\u00a0  <\/p>\n<p class=\"text text-block paragraph text-left neo-font-paragraph-xl-reg  yf-18d6y07\" style=\"text-decoration: none; font-style: normal; text-transform: none; text-align: inherit; font-variant-numeric: normal;\">The company also lifted its full-year adjusted earnings per share outlook to $5.47 at the midpoint. It was a solid quarter for the company, with key metrics including revenue, adjusted earnings per share, and adjusted operating income all outperforming projections.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"text text-block paragraph text-left neo-font-paragraph-xl-reg  yf-18d6y07\" style=\"text-decoration: none; font-style: normal; text-transform: none; text-align: inherit; font-variant-numeric: normal;\">Is now the time to buy Manhattan Associates? <a href=\"https:\/\/stockstory.org\/us\/stocks\/nasdaq\/manh?utm_source=whyItMovesArticle&amp;utm_medium=yahoo&amp;utm_campaign=companyLink&amp;utm_article=Clt2am8HY0g%3D&amp;utm_ticker=MANH\" data-ylk=\"slk:Access%20our%20full%20analysis%20report%20here%2C%20it&#039;s%20free;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas;source:content-canvas%20default\" data-yga=\"{&quot;yLinkText&quot;:&quot;Access our full analysis report here, it&#039;s free&quot;,&quot;yLinkElement&quot;:&quot;context_link&quot;,&quot;yModuleName&quot;:&quot;content-canvas&quot;,&quot;yTrafficOrigin&quot;:&quot;content-canvas default&quot;}\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">Access our full analysis report here, it&#8217;s free<\/a>.  <\/p>\n<p>        What Is The Market Telling Us          <\/p>\n<p class=\"text text-block paragraph text-left neo-font-paragraph-xl-reg  yf-18d6y07\" style=\"text-decoration: none; font-style: normal; text-transform: none; text-align: inherit; font-variant-numeric: normal;\">Manhattan Associates&#8217;s shares are somewhat volatile and have had 13 moves greater than 5% over the last year. But moves this big are rare even for Manhattan Associates and indicate this news significantly impacted the market&#8217;s perception of the business.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"text text-block paragraph text-left neo-font-paragraph-xl-reg  yf-18d6y07\" style=\"text-decoration: none; font-style: normal; text-transform: none; text-align: inherit; font-variant-numeric: normal;\">The previous big move we wrote about was 28 days ago when the stock gained 5.8% on the news that Guggenheim&#8217;s John DiFucci upgraded both Salesforce and ServiceNow to Buy, arguing the AI-disruption fear that gutted the software sector during the year had pushed valuations too low. This was a valuation call from a skeptic, not an AI endorsement. DiFucci wrote he is &#8220;not upgrading because we see [ServiceNow] as an AI beneficiary,&#8221; calling near-term AI monetization &#8220;unlikely to materialize&#8221; and AI risks &#8220;very real,&#8221; while arguing the darkest scenario was already priced in (CRM at ~3.7x EV\/recurring revenue; NOW&#8217;s $125 target at 7.5x EV\/NTM recurring revenue).The read-through was what lifted the group. When a previously cautious, highly ranked analyst flips to Buy on the two enterprise-SaaS bellwethers purely on valuation, it signals the &#8220;SaaSpocalypse&#8221; repricing overshot, de-risking the whole complex and inviting bargain-hunting across peers. Oracle&#8217;s ~2% bounce added an independent second leg, driven by inclusion on William Blair&#8217;s July Analyst Conviction List, a new AI product, and oversold conditions after the previous disclosure of a $40 billion AI-infrastructure raise. Together they extended a multi-week recovery.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"text text-block paragraph text-left neo-font-paragraph-xl-reg  yf-18d6y07\" style=\"text-decoration: none; font-style: normal; text-transform: none; text-align: inherit; font-variant-numeric: normal;\">Manhattan Associates is up 23.2% since the beginning of the year, but at $206.12 per share, it is still trading 9.6% below its 52-week high of $227.94 from July 2025. Investors who bought $1,000 worth of Manhattan Associates&#8217;s shares 5 years ago would now be looking at an investment worth $1,281.  <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Why Manhattan Associates (MANH) Stock Is Up Today What Happened?
