Manhattan Associates (MANH): A Cloud Transition Story Powering Growth and Margins— What’s Driving RPO Growth? Impact, Outlook, and Key Competitive & Strategic Levers at Play!
Manhattan Associates delivered record Q3 2024 results, reaffirming its strong execution and strategic leadership in supply chain and omnichannel software solutions. Total revenue rose 12% YoY to $267 million, surpassing expectations by $3.46 million, with 33% cloud subscription revenue growth driving this performance. Adjusted EPS increased 29% to $1.35, exceeding forecasts by $0.29, supported by operating margin expansion to 37.1%. Robust revenue visibility was reinforced by a 27% YoY rise in Remaining Performance Obligation (RPO) to $1.7 billion, underscoring Manhattan’s strong growth trajectory. The shift to cloud continues to enhance Manhattan’s revenue quality and margin profile, with Q3 cloud revenue reaching $86 million. Strategic innovations, including Manhattan Active Supply Chain Planning and enhancements to the Active Omni suite, strengthen the company’s product differentiation and ability to address complex customer needs. While macro headwinds and deferred deal timing pose challenges, Manhattan’s 70% win rates, record pipeline, and growing share of new logos highlight resilient demand and balanced growth across upselling and new customer acquisition. Guidance for 2024 reflects confidence in continued growth, with a midpoint revenue target of $1.04 billion, operating margins of 34%, and adjusted EPS of $4.61. Can Manhattan sustain its RPO momentum and cloud leadership amid evolving customer demands and macro uncertainties?
