  • Bank of America Raises Snowflake Price Target Ahead of Earnings
    May 21, 2026, 4:52 AM EDT. Bank of America Securities raised its price target for Snowflake (SNOW) from $195 to $205, signaling a roughly 20% upside ahead of the May 27 earnings report. Despite Snowflake's stock falling 21.92% year-to-date, BofA maintained a Buy rating, citing increased confidence in Snowflake's execution in the growing AI business intelligence market. The target hike stems from a valuation multiple increase rather than forecast revisions, reflecting optimism over the company's 18-month outlook. BofA downplayed Middle East demand concerns, noting it accounts for about 1% of revenues. Other analysts are divided, with price targets ranging from $200 to $325 amid competitive and growth worries. Snowflake's Q4 fiscal 2026 performance sets the stage for May's earnings, which investors will closely watch for validation.
