Raymond James Reiterates Outperform Rating on Workiva (WK)

Raymond James analyst Brian Peterson reiterated an Outperform rating and $105.00 price target on Workiva (NYSE: WK).

The analyst comments "The news: This morning, Workiva announced that Barbara Larson will be its next EVP and Chief Financial Officer. Ms. Larson joins Workiva following her tenure at SentinelOne where she served as the company’s CFO since September of 2024. Prior to her time at SentinelOne, she spent 10 years at Workday holding numerous financial/advisory roles, including as the company’s CFO from 2022 through 2023. Ms. Larson also has significant experience in software roles, with other leadership positions held at VMware, TIBCO Software, and Symantec. Ms. Larson will assume the role of CFO at WK on January 20, 2026. In the interim and following Jill Klindt’s departure from the company on December 26, 2025, Julie Iskow (President and CEO) will also serve as the company’s CFO and Treasurer. Our thoughts: We view Ms. Larson’s experience as very impressive and should be well received by investors after what we believe was a thorough search. Importantly, she has experience at scaled businesses (north of $1 billion in annual revenue) while referencing “sustainable growth” and “increasing value to customers and shareholders” for Workiva that aligns with its current outlook. We would not expect changes to its medium-term targets as part of this transition, with these targets specifically reiterated as part of CEO Julie Iskow’s section at the recent investor day"
