NICE’s Strong Portfolio Aids Clientele

NICE’s shares have increased 20.8% year to date compared with the Zacks Computer & Technology sector’s rise of 8.6%. The uptick can be attributed to growth in its customer base, driven by the strong adoption of platform solutions such as CXone, Evidencentral, Actimize, Inform Elite, Robotic Process Automation and Investigate.

NICE’s expanding international footprint is noteworthy. It expanded the CXone Cloud infrastructure customer base in Japan by launching a second region in Osaka, introducing a specialized Business Continuity service to ensure uninterrupted contact center operations during natural disasters and enhance overall resilience for Japanese customers.

Expanding portfolio has been a key catalyst. In March, NICE Actimize launched ARCHIVE-X, a cloud-based all-in-one archiving and records management solution, providing financial services firms with comprehensive compliance support by securely archiving various communication types in the NICE Compliance Cloud.

NICE’s growing efforts to enhance its customer base on the back of its robust cloud solutions are expected to drive top-line growth.

For the first quarter of 2024, NICE expects non-GAAP revenues between $650 million and $660 million. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for revenues is pegged at $654.81 million, indicating 14.50% growth year over year.

Non-GAAP earnings are estimated in the $2.40-2.50 per share band. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for earnings is pegged at $2.45 per share, indicating a 20.69% year-over-year increase.
