Verisk Analytics: Solid Growth Outlook Convinced Me To Upgrade To A Buy
Upgraded Verisk Analytics to a buy rating due to strong subscription revenue growth and visible growth levers, particularly through product innovation and value-based pricing. VRSK's subscription revenue growth accelerated to 11% y/y, driven by new product uptake and bundling, with potential for further acceleration in FY25. The shift to a value-based pricing model enhances pricing power and reduces revenue growth volatility, supporting a premium valuation despite a high forward PE.
