DA Davidson has revised upward its price target for SS&C Technologies Holdings, Inc. to $106 from $102, maintaining a Buy rating as the company prepares to release its fourth-quarter 2025 earnings. The financial technology firm is expected to report steady revenue growth supported by recent acquisitions and organic expansion, with initial 2026 guidance anticipated to align with market expectations. Recent strategic moves, including the acquisition of Curo Fund Services and expansion in Europe, highlight SS&C's growth strategy.

Key Points

  • DA Davidson increases SS&C price target to $106, maintaining a Buy rating ahead of Q4 earnings.
  • Projected Q4 adjusted revenue growth of 6% year-over-year to $1.62 billion, matching consensus.
  • Recent strategic moves include acquisition of Curo Fund Services and EU expansion through SS&C Wealth Services Europe Ltd.

DA Davidson has upgraded its price target on SS&C Technologies Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ:SSNC) to $106.00, an increase from the previous $102.00, while reaffirming its Buy rating prior to the company’s impending fourth-quarter earnings announcement. SS&C Technologies, a financial technology provider, is slated to disclose its Q4 2025 financial performance following market close on Thursday, February 5, 2026, with a corresponding earnings call scheduled for 5:00 PM Eastern Time.

The analyst firm projects that SS&C will at least meet, if not slightly surpass, its internal earnings forecasts for the quarter. Forecasts include adjusted revenue growth of 6% year-over-year, reaching approximately $1.62 billion, which is consistent with consensus expectations. The expectation incorporates a 3.8% constant currency organic growth rate augmented by estimated revenue of roughly $24 million attributable to two acquisitions finalized during the quarter.

In addition, DA Davidson anticipates that SS&C’s management will present preliminary financial guidance for 2026, with outlook figures expected to be consistent with both the firm’s forecasts and market consensus. This guidance will provide investors with updated expectations on the company’s growth trajectory and profitability for the coming year.

Concurrently, SS&C recently completed the acquisition of Curo Fund Services, a South African fund administration entity. This transaction expanded SS&C's assets under administration by approximately R3 trillion, equivalent to USD 170.4 billion. The acquisition also added around 300 employees based in Cape Town to the SS&C workforce, enhancing its global operational footprint.

Further expanding its global reach, SS&C has established SS&C Wealth Services Europe Ltd. after receiving authorization under the Markets in Financial Instruments Directive (MiFID) from the Central Bank of Ireland. This development enables SS&C to provide wealth management technology and recurring services throughout the European Union, leveraging its Dublin headquarters.

SS&C also announced a quarterly dividend declaration of $0.27 per share, payable on December 15, 2025, to shareholders recorded as of December 1, 2025. The dividend reflects ongoing shareholder returns amid the company’s expansion initiatives.

Analyst commentary from UBS has maintained a Buy rating on SS&C with a price target of $112. UBS highlights SS&C’s strategic acquisitions, including Blue Prism and Calastone, as reinforcing the company’s growth and investment potential. Meanwhile, Raymond James has reduced its price target to $104 but continues to hold a Strong Buy stance, recognizing accelerated organic revenue growth in Q3 2025 as a positive momentum indicator.

Risks

  • Earnings performance could fall short of forecasts impacting stock valuation.
  • Integration challenges from recent acquisitions may affect operational efficiency.
  • Market uncertainties in financial technology and regulatory environments could influence growth projections.
