TDC Shares Underperform Industry & Sector
TDC shares have declined 32.2% year to date (YTD), underperforming the broader Zacks Computer & Technology Sector’s growth of 26.3% and the Zacks Computer- Storage Devices industry’s rise of 13.6%.
The decline in share price can be attributed to its slower revenue growth, coupled with stiff competition from Oracle ORCL and Snowflake SNOW, who are aggressively expanding their cloud and data analytics offerings.
Teradata has struggled to fully capitalize on the growing demand for cloud data analytics, which has affected its stock performance.
The company's shares have underperformed Oracle but beat Snowflake YTD. While ORCL shares have returned 79.2%, SNOW dropped 34.5%.
TDC’s Prospects Rides on Cloud and AI Solutions
Teradata provides a comprehensive analytical solution through its Teradata Vantage platform and VantageCloud with ClearScape Analytics. This integrated solution provides significant scale, speed and security across various environments, including on-premises, public/private clouds and hybrid setups.
TDC highlights promising growth prospects, particularly in its cloud segment. Public cloud’s annual recurring revenues at the third-quarter end surged by 26% year over year to $570 million, driven by robust demand for Teradata VantageCloud and ClearScape Analytics.
Teradata’s advancements in AI capabilities, particularly through enhancements to its ClearScape Analytics platform, have been well received and position the company as a key player in the AI space.
TDC’s integration with NVIDIA’s AI platform further strengthens its offering by providing high-performance, scalable AI capabilities, helping clients process and analyze large data sets more effectively.
These advancements are part of Teradata's broader strategy to position itself as a strategic AI partner for its customers, particularly as demand for AI-powered data analytics continues to grow.
