Silver Lake's potential Workday buyout could bolster battered software valuations by showing that private equity remains confident in ‌the industry's prospects despite fears of AI disruption, analysts and investors ‌said on Friday. Shares of the human-resources and financial management software company soared nearly 18% on Thursday ​after Reuters exclusively reported about its acquisition talks with Silver Lake, which pushed its market value to more than $51 billion. The enthusiasm provided some relief to a sector hammered this year by fears that AI tools capable of generating computer code and ‌creating applications could erode ⁠the need for software services, which have long been one of Silicon Valley's most reliable cash generators.

Investing.com -- Truist stated in a note Friday that a reported takeover approach for Workday could revive a dormant software dealmaking cycle, and has refreshed its lists of potential takeout candidates across its coverage.

The surge rippled immediately across the software sector, reigniting a debate that has dogged the industry for months: whether the deal reflects a genuine valuation floor for beaten-down SaaS names, or signals that even blue-chip software companies are struggling to navigate the AI transition.

Silver Lake’s takeover of Workday would send a clear signal to investors that private-equity firms are circling software.

Jefferies raised its price target on Workday to $205 from $140 while maintaining a ‘Hold’ rating.

Workday stock has surged in the past month, yet the valuation signals are split. An intrinsic value estimate from a Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) model points to a sizeable gap to the current price, while market based multiples suggest the shares are not cheap and the broader value checks lean that way too. Workday is up 47.7% over the past month, which puts recent momentum in sharp contrast with a longer term record that includes a 7.0% decline over the past year. The reported acquisition...
