Base and Bull scenarios

Bull20%

Price target

$358.84

+76.8% from spot

The bull scenario envisions an accelerated cloud migration cycle paired with rapid enterprise adoption of agentic artificial intelligence governance. Workday deepens wallet share across Fortune five hundred accounts as the Financial Management suite displaces legacy ERP systems and international expansion accelerates in EMEA and APAC. Operating margins expand beyond baseline projections, driving rapid earnings growth. From $202.96, this scenario establishes a target of $358.84 with an estimated probability of 20.0% and an implied return of 76.8%, matching Potential value of $358.84. Disconfirmation would appear if enterprise software spending contracts or competitive bundling halts cross-sell momentum, visible within three to four quarters.

Enterprise adoption of agentic AI governance drives accelerated subscription additions across core HR and finance platforms.
Operating margins expand faster than expected toward top-tier peer enterprise software levels.
International market penetration broadens, elevating the non-US revenue contribution.

Base60%

Price target

$279.78

+37.8% from spot

The base scenario reflects durable enterprise software compounding. Under this path, subscription revenue grows at a steady low double-digit pace, while provider-adjusted operating margins expand steadily toward mature enterprise software levels as sales and administrative leverage take hold. From the reference price of $202.96, this outcome yields a target of $279.78 with an estimated probability of 60.0% and an implied return of 37.8%, aligning closely with Fair value of $279.78. This scenario would be disconfirmed if subscription revenue decelerates into single digits or if workforce restructuring fails to yield expected operating efficiencies, which investors would detect within four to six quarters.

Subscription revenue maintains steady low double-digit expansion supported by enterprise gross renewal rates exceeding historical benchmarks.
Operating margins expand progressively each fiscal year through disciplined administrative overhead control and cloud infrastructure efficiency.
Diluted share count remains stable as free cash flow funds programmatic share repurchases to offset equity grants.
