UiPath Inc. inched up at the open on Tuesday, with shares adding 3 cents to $10.19. The move came as big U.S. ETFs tracking the S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100 slipped. PATH started at $10.30, ranged from $10.04 to $10.39, and the market cap stood near $5.4 billion.
UiPath shares have fallen near the low-$10 level after last month’s post-earnings jump faded. The stock closed at $13.10 on June 1 but dropped to $10.16 on Monday, off about 22%. That leaves investors asking if the automation software company can turn its AI push into steady ARR, or annualized recurring revenue, which tracks yearly subscription sales.
NYSE trading ran during its regular hours, 9:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. EDT on Tuesday. It was not a holiday, according to the exchange.
UiPath’s latest news is the June 16 launch of Maestro Case, its AI-native case-management tool that handles coordination of AI agents, bots, humans and data across complex business processes. “Exceptions are the norm,” chief product and tech officer Raghu Malpani said. The company said early users designing with the tool saw case handling times drop 60% to 80%. UiPath, Inc.
Investors continue to parse the May 28 earnings from UiPath. The company posted a 17% jump in first-quarter revenue to $418 million, and ARR climbed 12% to $1.901 billion. GAAP operating income landed at $28 million. CEO Daniel Dines said agentic products are “moving from pilot to production.” UiPath, Inc.
UiPath put out guidance for second-quarter revenue at $395 million to $400 million, with its fiscal 2027 full-year revenue in a range of $1.776 billion to $1.781 billion. On the call, Chief Operating and Financial Officer Ashim Gupta said the company is dealing with a “variable macroeconomic environment.” He also said AI was in 16 of UiPath’s top 20 deals.

Analysts aren’t getting more bullish. StockAnalysis, using S&P Global data, keeps consensus at “Hold.” BMO Capital’s Keith Bachman left his hold call in place on June 1, but lowered his price target to $13 from $14. StockAnalysis
UiPath’s position in the workflow-automation market stays messy. The company goes after the same automation budgets as Microsoft, Salesforce and ServiceNow, but is also working to plug into their ecosystems. UiPath added its CX Companion and Maestro Connector to Salesforce AgentExchange, and built a security automation tool that works with Microsoft Defender and Sentinel.
Investors may start demanding more concrete proof that AI products are driving ARR, rather than just giving a boost to certain big deals or shifting the quarterly revenue mix. RBC-connected notes from earlier this month mentioned execution risk and called out the lack of obvious AI returns; if corporate budgets for software shrink or if AI pilots drag on instead of turning into full contracts, UiPath’s profit gains might not be enough to get the stock out of the low-$10s.
Next up isn’t an earnings report but governance. UiPath’s 2026 annual meeting lands Thursday, June 25, at 11 a.m. ET. If management doesn’t offer new answers, the main issue stays the same: Will AI agents and orchestration drive growth, or just end up as a pricier update to UiPath’s usual robotic process automation?
