What Happened to the Twilio Stock Price Today?

  • Twilio (NASDAQ:TWLO) stock dropped more than 10% after the cloud communications company reported first quarter numbers that — while strong — included a weak second quarter guide that spooked investors.

  • After the sell-off, TWLO stock has plunged more than 30% from its early 2021 highs.

Why It Happened

  • Don’t be fooled by the TWLO stock price reaction. Twilio’s first quarter numbers were good.
  • Customer growth was healthy. Revenues rose 62%. Operating margins expanded by a good amount.
  • But the second quarter guide calls for a pretty significant revenue growth slowdown, and margins are guided to compress.
  • That’s not a great combination, especially for a stock that is priced for perfection like TWLO at 20X forward sales.
  • The drop in Twilio stock ostensibly makes sense.

Does It Matter?

  • Nope.
  • Who cares about quarter-to-quarter fluctuations when you’re investing in a company like Twilio that is changing the way the world works?
  • Twilio started out as a cloud communications platform that created industry-leading APIs to power digital communications between businesses and consumers — think when the Uber (NYSE:UBER) or DoorDash (NYSE:DASH) apps text you. Those communications are powered by Twilio’s APIs.
  • That business in it of itself has tremendous long-term growth potential, because all communications are moving to the digital channel.
  • But Twilio is doing so much more than creating APIs to digitize B2C communications.
  • With Flex, Twilio is adding intelligence to its platforms and enabling companies to virtualize their entire call centers.
  • With the acquisition of Segment, Twilio is boosting that intelligence with a data-driven AI system that can potentially automate and optimize the whole process.
  • Long term, Twilio is a building an AI-powered digital customer engagement solution with endless applications.
  • The 5- to 10-year upside potential in TWLO stock is enormous.

TWLO Stock Price Forecast

  • The recent growth sector meltdown has created a golden buying opportunity in TWLO stock.
  • This world-changer is worth a lot more than $300 today.
  • Try $450. That’s where our numbers say the stock should trade today.
  • Or try $480. That’s where Wall Street analysts believe the stock will trade in 12 months.
  • Either way, there’s a lot of upside potential in TWLO stock from its current $300 levels.
