Despite last week&#8217;s market rally, which saw US markets recover losses since President Trump&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44756759/new-research-shows-donald-trumps-25-tariffs-could-cost-auto-companies-108billion-report">tariff announcement </a>in early April, American stocks are still underperforming their European counterparts.
The S&amp;P 500 has rallied 12.5% since Trump's reciprocal tariffs <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44729384/trump-pauses-tariffs-after-yields-surge-bond-vigilantes-hit-another-homerun-experts-point-to-bond-market-panic-for-reversal">were paused</a>, but the Vanguard Europe ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VGK#NYSE">VGK</a>) is up over 18% in the same timeframe. Despite the ‘Sell America' trade losing some steam, investors still seem to prefer European equities to US equities.
Of course, this surge in European stocks has left most big-name European investments at high valuations. But that doesn&#8217;t mean there are no more good stocks to buy across the Atlantic.
Today, we&#8217;re looking at five European stocks that haven&#8217;t rallied as much as their peers but are still undervalued and have room to run.
Each one ranks high on Benzinga Edge&#8217;s Value rankings, too.
These firms all have a Price-to-Earnings (P/E) ratio under 15, a minimum Benzinga Edge Value score of 85, and sales growth of at least 10% over the last five years. Note that many of these companies trade in the US using securities like American Depository Receipts (ADRs), which function as proxies to international equities but have some differences investors should familiarize themselves with before buying.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Equinor ASA</h2>
Benzinga Edge Value Score: 93.23
Equinor (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EQNR#NYSE">EQNR</a>) is a fully integrated oil and gas company based in Norway. It has a $63.6 billion market cap and a P/E ratio of 7.31. The Norwegian government owns a 67% stake in the firm, but its shares trade on the New York Stock Exchange and European exchanges. Equinor mines for oil on the Norwegian Continental Shelf and also operates solar, wind, and natural gas refineries.
<figure class="wp-block-image"><img decoding="async" src="https://lh7-rt.googleusercontent.com/docsz/AD_4nXe9uPC-lJJzFwPSnbTtP5iOa07AApLaHwDVkx3cgQuDwKxkHYYa2lO-9RTR3f16_dikQs_Z3g7lEHrZQy37gWEx79XB6beJnFDwFBMHuGufDDUdQTUnPT_2t2tJ8TyStw0zNFdTng?key=K8dCG8bnYTHY9lvM_fV4Pg" alt="" /></figure>
Equinor&#8217;s revenue has expanded for the last three quarters, the first time it has seen revenue growth in three consecutive quarters since 2022. Despite the recent slowdown, Equinor has grown sales at a 21% clip over the last five years, and its dividend currently yields over 6%. A recent earnings miss caused the stock to drop, but the decline ended at the same level as a previous drawdown, indicating a potential bottom and possible entry point.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Adecoagro SA&nbsp;</h2>
Benzinga Edge Value Score: 91.79
With a ticker like that, you can probably guess the industry—Adecoagro (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AGRO#NYSE">AGRO</a>) is a small-cap agricultural firm headquartered in Luxembourg with operations primarily in South America. Although its market cap is under $1 billion, it posted $1.45 billion in revenue over the last 12 months and has grown sales by 13% in the previous five years.
<figure class="wp-block-image"><img decoding="async" src="https://lh7-rt.googleusercontent.com/docsz/AD_4nXcnBdbVblawYAfq6oDU5lbM73vfH85oa82lcWlDQj5q3E0kpFdS3RICq_NqKfr0LPWMpw4LFPSaeOlOITBfhsBBen5KOQW0f8TCkmyW4VAmalQUR7o_a54X1DufAY_0MnQWYK0zgQ?key=K8dCG8bnYTHY9lvM_fV4Pg" alt="" /></figure>
AGRO shares have a P/E ratio of 9.49 and trade at just 0.60 times sales, but recent downgrades from Morgan Stanley and Bank of America sent the stock plunging under $9 per share. It is trading near its 52-week low, but the Relative Strength Index (RSI) is in oversold territory, indicating this selloff might be petering out.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Global Ship Lease Inc.&nbsp;</h2>
Benzinga Edge Value Score: 96.89
Global Ship Lease (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GSL#NYSE">GSL</a>) is a Greek-based container shipping line with over 60 ships and a market cap of around $760 million. Most of the company's business comes from MAERSK charters, and its sales have grown by 24% over the last five years. It currently trades with a P/E ratio of just 2.28 with a Price-to-Book value of 0.52.
<figure class="wp-block-image"><img decoding="async" src="https://lh7-rt.googleusercontent.com/docsz/AD_4nXfOgyaKxvTPC7jixULOPzcVWRVCZC1_kwpZ-pTnfsWfxzIDQ13pdnSZ7oqHHVvR9xR-A7-LPUPNfNNYBTvMRWXt-1VEhuKJNSNFuA-cUOlLkoV4hR-BjNqSISDSSX_3ZUAeULmr_Q?key=K8dCG8bnYTHY9lvM_fV4Pg" alt="" /></figure>
Investing in a shipping company seemed risky once the reciprocal tariff chart was released, and GSL shares plummeted in the days following Trump's Rose Garden announcement. But the stock has rebounded in the weeks following the pause, including a rally that saw eight green candles in nine days. GSL has boosted revenue in six of the last seven quarters as well. Its profit margins are approaching 50%. Jeffries is the only research firm with a rating on the stock, but it&#8217;s a Buy with a price target of $29, indicating an upside of over 35%.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Tenaris SA&nbsp;</h2>
Benzinga Edge Value Score: 87.64
Tenaris (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TS#NYSE">TS</a>) resides in the energy sector and produces goods used in oil and gas well construction. The company is based in Luxembourg but has operations in the United States, Argentina, Mexico, and Italy. Tenaris builds some of the most resilient tubular goods used in deep-water and horizontal shale wells.
<figure class="wp-block-image"><img decoding="async" src="https://lh7-rt.googleusercontent.com/docsz/AD_4nXepep04kxFz5LigOCKkOFTi_Jcao2DZdJkX_HHkYojkCFq8T8MpSe8B2L6nLoHqsJPJr_Zo7zNlybBiY5ztH0IaQWhsyfrz0j42D9UlCkiuz0cMuuXT4RQPoO0i1e-Cg4k-x6jriA?key=K8dCG8bnYTHY9lvM_fV4Pg" alt="" /></figure>
Tenaris is a large-cap firm in the oil and gas space with an $18 billion market cap and $12 billion in annual sales. The company has grown sales by 17.7% over the last five years, but revenue has declined recently. Profit margins have dipped from 26% in December 2023 to 15% in the most recent report in March. The stock fell below the 50-day and 200-day SMAs following the Rose Garden press conference, but the steep decline triggered an oversold reading on the RSI, and shares currently trade at just 9.5 times forward earnings. 
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Stellantis NV&nbsp;</h2>
Benzinga Edge Value Score: 97.56
A car manufacturer like Stellantis (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/STLA#NYSE">STLA</a>) might seem like a bold investment choice in a trade war. The company makes popular American brands like Dodge, Jeep, and Ram. However, only 26% of Stellantis's 2024 sales occurred in North America, and the company does nearly 50% of its business in Europe, providing some level of tariff protection. Stellantis made more than $169 billion in sales over the last 12 months with income of $5.92 billion.
<figure class="wp-block-image"><img decoding="async" src="https://lh7-rt.googleusercontent.com/docsz/AD_4nXcIzUAo3AZPVu8UKpGTgkdqpIuMjcVaF-M0OOtPDRxN3cet_4mwFsaLpd-gsOEsoQaF-T5fNXFAFCIhfmKGc89IlU-kM5-nZ3QLXtdyk7PAylOfuFCCTpfxAVmP85hQPqQgH3rYQg?key=K8dCG8bnYTHY9lvM_fV4Pg" alt="" /></figure>
Car manufacturers like Stellantis have been some of the hardest hit stocks during the tariff tumult; its shares are down more than 28% year-to-date. However, it might be an opportune time to take a position in the stock as Stellantis is a large-cap company with a significant global presence. The company grew revenue by 33.6% over the last five years and trades at its cheapest valuation in years at just 4.8 times earnings and 0.16 times sales. The stock also pays a 6% dividend yield with a 36% dividend payout ratio, offering income as well as stock price appreciation. And with the RSI triggering an oversold signal, a momentum reversal could be coming soon.

5 European Stocks Rated High On Our Value Rankings

A surprising trend is emerging: more Americans are claiming <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/04/45098780/social-security-panic-is-premature-experts-say-delaying-claims-still-yields-bigger-checks-despite-2033-trust-fund-clock">Social Security benefits</a> — and doing so earlier than expected. In March alone, more than 580,000 people filed initial claims for Social Security. That's an increase of about 80,000 from March 2024, according to data presented at a recent Social Security Administration <a href="https://youtu.be/d4Z2teGboLY?si=vkMvLAvyOXY8gUkX&amp;t=1368">meeting</a>.
So, what's fueling the rush? Experts and officials point to a mix of factors — including fear, financial pressure, and policy changes — that are leading many to take the leap sooner than planned.

</ul>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Fear Over Social Security's Future</h2>
At the heart of the surge is a growing anxiety about the stability of the Social Security program itself. Leland Dudek, acting commissioner of the SSA, said during the March 28meeting that many people are rushing to claim benefits because they're afraid they might lose out altogether.&nbsp;
"Fearmongering has driven people to claim benefits earlier," he said, and SSA staff confirmed his observation.
This fear isn't unfounded. The <a href="https://www.ssa.gov/OACT/TRSUM/">2024 Social Security Trustees Report</a> predicts that the trust fund could be depleted by 2035. If that happens without reform, beneficiaries might face a 17% cut in benefits. That kind of uncertainty is causing many to take what they can now, just in case.
The political climate is also contributing to the unease. Recent cost-cutting measures by the Department of Government Efficiency, led by Elon Musk under the Trump administration, have caused <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/25/04/44941777/social-security-payments-could-face-interruptions-in-may-warns-former-commissioner-martin-omalley-never-hoped-i-was-wrong-so-much-in-my-life">staffing cuts</a>, website outages, and agency disruption. While officials stress that no field offices have permanently closed, leaked plans and long wait times are adding to public anxiety.
Trending: The average American couple has saved this much money for retirement —<a href="http://www.benzinga.com/money/smartasset"> How do you compare</a>?
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Demographic Shifts and Policy Changes</h2>
Fear isn't the only factor driving the surge. A wave of baby boomers is now reaching retirement age, increasing the number of eligible applicants. On top of that, the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/01/42935393/millions-of-public-employees-to-see-boosted-social-security-payments-after-biden-signed-social-security-fairness-act-into-law">Social Security Fairness Act</a>, passed on Jan. 5, has prompted a fresh group of public sector workers to file new claims.
These structural shifts in the retirement landscape are naturally pushing numbers higher. But the size and timing of the March spike still stand out. The data shared in the SSA meeting shows that benefit claims typically dip in early months of the year — making this 16% jump all the more unusual.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Job Losses and Rising Costs Add Pressure</h2>
The economy is also playing a role. Some near-retirees are being pushed into retirement involuntarily due to job losses. The <a href="https://www.bls.gov/news.release/pdf/empsit.pdf">April jobs report</a> showed that long-term unemployment of 27 weeks or more hit its highest rate in three years.
At the same time, inflation and market volatility have many older Americans feeling financially vulnerable. Social Security, which adjusts annually for cost-of-living, offers a predictable income stream — something increasingly attractive in uncertain times.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Is Early Claiming the Right Move?</h2>
Financial experts caution against making decisions based purely on fear. Claiming benefits early — as soon as age 62 — can result in a permanently reduced monthly check. Those who wait until full retirement age at the typical 67 or age 70 receive significantly higher payments.
Still, nearly 30% of people claim at age 62, and another 32% before reaching full retirement age, according to <a href="https://finance.yahoo.com/news/how-financial-advisers-are-calming-clients-fears-about-the-future-of-social-security-140405188.html">Yahoo Finance</a>.
"Social Security claiming is amongst the most important financial decisions that older households make and can determine not only the income that individuals receive from Social Security but can also potentially influence financial well-being in the years following initial claiming," researchers from Georgetown University's Center for Retirement Initiatives <a href="https://cri.georgetown.edu/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/CRI-WP-2025-01.pdf">wrote</a>.&nbsp;
For those concerned, experts suggest reviewing benefit estimates, speaking with a financial planner, and, if needed, contacting your congressional representative for help navigating the system.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Bottom Line</h2>
With economic uncertainty and political changes stirring public concern, it&#8217;s no surprise that more Americans are <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/04/44657139/suze-orman-says-stop-collecting-social-security-early-because-you-could-be-sabotaging-your-financial-futurehttps://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/04/44657139/suze-orman-says-stop-collecting-social-security-early-because-you-could-be-sabotaging-your-financial-future">claiming Social Security early</a>. While the decision is deeply personal, it's one that should be made with a full understanding of the long-term impact — not just the short-term headlines.

80,000 More Americans Filed For Social Security In March Compared With Last Year – What's Driving This Surge?

Coinbase Global (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COIN#NASDAQ">COIN</a>) could show the company's leadership in the cryptocurrency ecosystem with first-quarter financial results after <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/earnings">market close Wednesday.</a>
Earnings Estimates: Analysts expect Coinbase to report first-quarter revenue of $2.13 billion, up from $1.64 billion in last year's first quarter, according to data <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/register?utm_adType=bzprocontent&amp;utm_campaign=14daytrial&amp;utm_ad=0507">from Benzinga Pro. </a>
The company beat analyst estimates for revenue in the last reported quarter, while beating estimates in eight of the last 10 quarters overall.
Analysts expect Coinbase to report first-quarter earnings per share of $2.12, up from $1.65 in last year's first quarter. The company has beaten analyst estimates for earnings per share in eight straight quarters and eight of the last 10 quarters overall.

What Analysts Are Saying: Rosenblatt analyst Chris Brendler recently warned that "crypto winter" could be underway and it <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/25/04/44869664/coinbase-global-goes-from-boom-to-bust-amid-crypto-winter-analyst-trims-q1-estimates">could hurt momentum</a> for Coinbase stock.
The analyst said sentiment on crypto has reversed with "sharply rising macro concerns."
Brendler reiterated a Buy rating on the stock while lowering the price target from $305 to $290.
The analyst said Coinbase's trading volumes in March were likely lower than expected. Brendler sees a rebound in crypto-related trading activity in the second half of 2025.
"In our view, legislative clarity will accelerate blockchain technology adoption and COIN will be a primary beneficiary," Brendler said.
Goldman Sachs analyst James Yaro<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/03/44421767/coinbase-analyst-cautiously-optimistic-on-stock-with-balanced-riskreward-says-regulatory-e"> sees a balanced risk/reward </a>for Coinbase heading into the earnings report. The analyst took over coverage of Coinbase at Goldman Sachs after the stock was previously covered by Will Nance.
Yaro gave Coinbase a Neutral rating and a $195 price target.
With pure-play exposure to the cryptocurrency sector, Yaro sees long-term growth for Coinbase as the crypto ecosystem expands.
&#8220;We are cautiously optimistic on COIN, but see a balance of upside and downside risks,&#8221; Yaro said.
Yaro highlights a positive regulatory environment for crypto that could support Coinbase&#8217;s growth, but also be a negative.
&#8220;Longer-term, regulatory reform could increase the crypto TAM, but also bring in competitors from across financial services. Competition could pressure COIN&#8217;s market share and pricing over time.&#8221;
Here are other recent <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/COIN/analyst-ratings">analyst ratings on Coinbase</a> and their price targets:
<ul>
<li>Citigroup: Maintained Buy rating, lowered price target from $350 to $270</li>
<li>JPMorgan: Maintained Neutral rating, lowered price target from $344 to $276</li>
<li>Benchmark: Initiated with Buy rating, $252 price target</li>
</ul>
Key Items to Watch: Analysts and investors will be looking at many items in Coinbase's earnings report with the price of Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) trading strong in January before falling in March.
Transaction revenue was up 172% quarter-over-quarter in the fourth quarter. This could be a key item to show whether Coinbase continues its leadership in the cryptocurrency ecosystem and also if traders were active in the first quarter with Donald Trump inaugurated and high volatility during the quarter.
Subscription and services has been a bright spot for Coinbase in recent quarters, bringing the company high-margin recurring revenue. Subscription and services revenue of $641 million in the fourth quarter was up 15% quarter-over-quarter and came in ahead of company guidance. The company<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43713994/coinbase-q4-earnings-highlights-revenue-beat-consumer-trading-volume-940-billion-company-welcomes-dawn-of-a-new-era-for-crypto"> is guiding for </a>first-quarter subscription and services revenue in a range of $685 million to $765 million.
Bitcoin made up 27% of both trading volume and transaction revenue in the fourth quarter. This was down from 37% and 35% respectively, in the third quarter. The new quarterly results will show if Bitcoin regained its dominance or saw lower activity due to other cryptocurrencies.
XRP Token (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/xrp/usd">XRP</a>) could be another item to watch after making up 14% of transaction revenue in the fourth quarter and seeing strong demand from Coinbase users.
COIN Price Action: Coinbase stock is down 0.7% to $195.47 on Wednesday versus a 52-week trading range of $142.58 to $349.75. Coinbase stock is down 21.4% year-to-date in 2025 and down 8.9% over the last year.
The drop in Coinbase's stock price comes with Bitcoin up 3.1% year-to-date and up 54.5% over the last year.

Coinbase Q1 Earnings Preview: Trump Inauguration, Bitcoin Surge And More Items To Watch

Electronic Arts Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EA#NASDAQ">EA</a>) released its <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/gaming/25/05/45238060/electronic-arts-stock-climbs-after-better-than-expected-q4-report" rel="noreferrer noopener">fourth-quarter results</a> after Tuesday&#8217;s closing bell.&nbsp;
Wall Street analysts rerated the stock after the report.
Wedbush analyst Michael Pachter reiterated Electronic Arts with an Outperform and raised the <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/EA/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">price target from&nbsp;$179&nbsp;to&nbsp;$210</a>.
JP Morgan analyst Cory A Carpenter maintained Electronic Arts with a Neutral and raised the price target from&nbsp;$135&nbsp;to&nbsp;$160.
Also Read: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44524101/take-two-and-roblox-set-for-big-2025-gains-as-gta-vi-mobile-growth-and-ads-drive-momentum-analyst" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">JP Morgan&#8217;s Top Video Game Stocks Of 2025</a>
Wedbush: Electronic Arts reported net bookings of $1.799 billion compared with Pachter&#8217;s estimate of $1.594 billion, consensus of $1.550 billion, and guidance of $1.444 billion-1.594 billion. Revenues exceeded expectations, driven by a rebound in EA SPORTS FC, the successful launch of Split Fiction, double-digit net bookings growth in The Sims, and continued strength in American Football titles. 
Adjusted EPS was $1.58, compared with Pachter&#8217;s estimate of $1.21, consensus of $1.10, and guidance of $0.76– 1.17. Fiscal 2026 guidance for net bookings of $7.600 billion-8.000 billion and adjusted EPS of $7.60-8.40, compared with Pachter&#8217;s prior estimates of $7.830 billion and $8.38 and previous consensus of $7.900 billion and $6.93. 
First-quarter 2026 guidance is for net bookings of $1.175 billion-1.275 billion and EPS of $(0.05)-0.15, compared with Pachter&#8217;s prior estimates of $1.250 billion and $0.51, and prior consensus of $1.264 billion and $0.23. First-quarter guidance assumes seasonally lower revenue, a five-point drag from Apex Legends, and a two-point drag from the catalog. Excluding Apex Legends, EA expects low single-digit live services growth in the period.
Pachter noted that the launch of Battlefwill likely result in sales of 7 million-15 million units for the year and expects Skate to add 3 million-5 million units more. At the low end, these titles should contribute $500 million of year-over-year growth; at the high end, they should contribute $1 billion. 
Perhaps more importantly, Electronic Arts&#8217; guidance contemplates that retail game prices will remain $70 for Xbox Series and PS5 releases. Electronic Arts noted it is highly likely that the company can raise prices for ALL of its new releases by $10 at retail, allowing it to capture $350 million of bookings growth in fiscal 2026 with only modest performance from its latest titles.
Pachter projected first-quarter revenue of $1.28 billion and EPS of $0.15.
JP Morgan: Three months ago, investors debated if the FC slowdown was temporary or structural, Dragon Age disappointed, and a Battlefield release in fiscal 2026 was uncertain due to GTA VI. A lot has changed in three months. FC proved to be a temporary &#8220;ebb,&#8221; the delay of GTA VI opened a window for Battlefield to launch in fiscal 2026, and Split Fiction nearly doubled expectations, according to Carpenter.
Carpenter listed his takeaways from management calls. The outlook does not include game price increases, but the analyst would not interpret them as off the table. Battlefield unit assumptions are prudent, given that the game has been out of the market for about four years. 
The analyst noted Electronic Arts could achieve the low end of its fiscal 2027 margin framework a year early in a Battlefield &#8220;blue sky&#8221; scenario. The fiscal first-quarter outlook reflects FC trends consistent with recent weeks, which could prove conservative given the significant upcoming events in the quarter.
Battlefield will have live services tied to it, but management has yet to disclose the timing. Carpenter noted the outlook reflects Battlefield live services assumptions that are even more conservative than unit assumptions.
Apex 2.0 release timing will likely be further out so as not to conflict with Battlefield.
Catalog is a bigger headwind than Apex for the fiscal year, but Apex is a bigger headwind in the fiscal first quarter.
Carpenter did not anticipate any material change to the dividend.
He projected first-quarter revenue of $1.6 billion and adjusted EPS of $0.04.

Trader Notes: Crypto trader McKenna <a href="https://x.com/Crypto_McKenna/status/1920190448364388552">emphasized</a> that Bitcoin's explosive rise from $15,000 post-FTX to $110,000 has occurred despite interest rates holding steady at 4.25%–4.5%, underscoring that the rally is not rate-driven. 
Instead, he credits the move to structural adoption, particularly by institutions, and Bitcoin&#8217;s growing role as a non-sovereign store of value and hedge against capital controls. 
The parabolic trend, he notes, reflects a global shift in perception rather than temporary macro factors.
Inmortal echoed this long-term bullishness, pointing out that after long stretches of vertical accumulation, there's usually a "banger move" and we may still see more upside before a major deviation.

Wedbush: Datadog reported its first-quarter results with "beats across the board," Ives said in a note. Bookings were strong during the quarter, with RPO (remaining performance obligations) coming in at $2.31 billion, up 33% year-on-year.
Management raised their 2025 revenue guidance to a range of $3.215 billion to $3.235 billion, above the Street's $3.20 billion estimate, as the company "maintains a solid pipeline across its entire customer base for cloud migration and digital transformation projects," Ives stated. 
However, the operating margin guidance of $625 million to $645 million came in below the Street's $680.3 million estimate, Ives noted. The company is ramping up hiring plans while looking for &#8220;cost efficiencies in its cloud costs.&#8221;
Needham: Datadog reported solid quarterly results and guided to second-quarter revenue above consensus, Cikos said. 
Datadog's sales representative headcount grew by more than 25% year-on-year, "with a greater emphasis on the Enterprise segment and International," he added.
Management indicated that AI-Natives had risen to 8.5% of ARR (annual recurring revenues), the analyst stated. However, the company lowered its 2025 operating profit guidance by $30 million "to account for $15 Million in OpEx tied to currency and $10 Million from the Eppo and Metaplane acquisitions," he further wrote.
Cantor Fitzgerald: Datadog reported strong first-quarter results. Its AI native cohort drove momentum. Plus, record levels of new logo bookings grew 70% year-over-year, Blakey wrote in a note. The company generated total revenue growth of 24.6%, higher than consensus expectations.
Management raised their full-year revenue guidance by $40 million, despite the first-quarter beat being $23 million. "We continue to believe Datadog is a unique asset in software, with market leadership in a strategically growing market centered on cloud-focused observabiltiy including AI," Blakey added.
Goldman Sachs: Datadog's NRR trended in the high 110s for a second straight quarter, Rangan said. The stock came under pressure due to the company's gross margins coming in below consensus and the second consecutive quarter of weaker-than-expected operating margin guidance for the full year.
"We view AI Revenue driven largely by inference as a positive, given this revenue stream's sustainability should ease investors' concerns around topline volatility," Rangan wrote.
DDOG Price Action: At the time of publication on Wednesday, shares of Datadog had declined by 0.89% to $105.12.

IBM projected that AI agents could power 30% of the one billion new applications by 2028, he further stated.
