Manhattan Associates Raises 2026 Guidance as Cloud Growth Accelerates

The quarter provides evidence for continued growth through cloud migration, recurring-platform adoption and early AI-agent traction. The evidence is constructive but incomplete: Active Agent monetization remains a pilot-stage question, and management identified macro, FX and overage-fee exposure as risks.

Transcript intelligence

What changed

Compared with the prior-quarter analysis, management moved from maintained to raised guidance. The current quarter added 24% cloud-revenue growth, 24% RPO growth, early quantified Active Agent pilot results and a larger order-management win, while the main open questions remain AI conversion, overage-fee durability, FX and services mix.

Guidance delta

Management raised full-year 2026 guidance to revenue of $1.147-$1.157 billion, adjusted operating margin of about 35%, and adjusted EPS of $5.29-$5.37.

Key takeaways

  • Q1 revenue was $282 million, up 7% year over year, while cloud revenue rose 24% to $117 million.
  • RPO increased 24% year over year to $2.35 billion, and new-logo bookings were 55% of cloud bookings.
  • Management said early Active Agent pilots delivered measurable operating gains and is scaling paid 90-day pilots.
  • The quarter's evidence supports a durable cloud-growth thesis, but recurring AI monetization is not yet established.

Management priorities

  • Expand Active Agent Foundry and customer-built agents
  • Hire forward-deployed engineers to accelerate AI deployments
  • Continue on-premises-to-cloud conversions and unified-platform adoption
  • Build toward a larger AI revenue contribution in 2027

Methodology

Reported and consensus figures come from FN2's earnings event records. Market reaction and volume are calculated from daily adjusted bars around the event; abnormal move subtracts the SPY move over the same window.

Analyst target low, average, and high values are derived at request time from each named analyst's latest persisted FMP target. The current-price marker comes from FN2's persisted market snapshot. They are sell-side estimates, not an FN2 valuation or recommendation.

Transcript intelligence is a structured synthesis of the current and prior earnings-call analyses. Missing values stay missing and are never estimated.
