Most Retirees Skip Over This $13 Billion BDC Income ETF That Pays 13 Percent Quarterly | FMP Stock News | |
|
Original source text
© Tinpixels / Getty ImagesIncome-focused investors comparing high-yield options to mainstream dividend funds encounter a familiar gap. VanEck BDC Income ETF (NYSEARCA:BIZD) pays a distribution yield near 13%, which would generate roughly $26,000 a year on that balance, while a mainstream dividend fund like the Schwab U.S. Dividend Equity ETF (NYSEARCA:SCHD) yields closer to 3.4%. BIZD sits in the corner of the market most retirees never reach: a fund of publicly traded business development companies that lend to middle-market borrowers shut out of bank financing. The fund and how it earns its yield BIZD holds roughly 25 business development companies regulated under the Investment Company Act of 1940. These firms originate floating-rate loans to private companies and pass most of their net investment income through to shareholders as dividends. The ETF concentrates that exposure in a few names: Ares Capital at about 14%, Blue Owl Capital at roughly 9%, plus FS KKR Capital, Main Street Capital, and Golub Capital BDC. About 36% of the portfolio is implemented through a total return swap on the MVIS US BDC Index, collateralized by roughly 35% in U.S. Treasury bills. The return engine is straightforward. BDCs collect interest on senior secured loans tied to short-term rates, and BIZD distributes that income quarterly. The most recent payment was $0.4818 per share for Q1 2026, an increase from the $0.4177 average across 2025. Total assets sit near $1.6 billion. What the strategy has actually delivered The income side delivers exactly what it promises, but the total return story tells a completely different tale. Year to date, BIZD has stumbled roughly 8%, and it is down about 12% over the past year, leaving shares hovering around $13. Look at the five-year window, and the fund managed a 28% total return. Meanwhile, SCHD surged ahead with a 51% return over the same period, and a massive 237% over ten years compared to BIZD’s 118%. Imagine a 68-year-old retiree with $200,000 in cash, hunting for income. They are going to judge this entire strategy by that massive performance gap. An investor pulling a hefty 13% cash distribution definitely pocketed the yield, but a SCHD holder enjoyed a smaller yield alongside significant price appreciation. Volatility is another major factor to weigh. BIZD plummeted about 50% during the March 2020 credit panic before finally clawing its way back alongside the leveraged-loan market. The tradeoffs investors take on Fee Stacking: VanEck’s direct management fee for BIZD is 0.40% (contractually capped). The gross expense ratio (which includes Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses, or AFFEs, from the underlying BDCs) sits right at 9.69%, though major financial data providers (like Seeking Alpha) display a trailing expense ratio of 12.86% due to shifting underlying fee structures. Tax Treatment: Accurate. BDC distributions are treated as ordinary income (non-qualified dividends) because BDCs operate as Regulated Investment Companies (RICs). Rate and Credit Sensitivity: Spot on for the trend, though the exact figures require a minor tune-up. The effective Federal Funds rate sits at 3.64% (down from its 5.33% peak, a drop of over 150 basis points from the tightening high). FS KKR Capital (FSK) slashed its dividend from $0.70 to $0.48 in February and cut it again to $0.42 in May. NAV Erosion: Accurate. Seeking Alpha analysis frequently highlights that BIZD’s structural price decline is tied to underlying BDCs distributing more than their net-asset-value gains over long horizons. Where it fits BIZD targets income generation through equity-like drawdowns, offering concentrated private credit exposure with ordinary-income tax treatment, best suited for tax-advantaged accounts like IRAs. A retiree who utilizes an IRA and allocates 5% to 10% of their income sleeve to private credit matches the core design of this product. Realize that capital appreciation and rock-solid principal stability are not features of this strategy. For lower yields at a fraction of the cost, a simple dividend equity ETF works better. If you want direct exposure without the heavy fund-of-funds fee stack, individual BDCs like Ares Capital or Blackstone Secured Lending are cleaner alternatives. |

Conference Call and Webcast Varonis will host a conference call today, Tuesday, April 28, 2026, at 4:30 p.m. Eastern Time, to discuss the Company's first quarter 2026 financial results. To access this call, dial 877-425-9470 (domestic) or 201-389-0878 (international). The passcode is 13759886. A replay of this conference call will be available through May 12, 2026 at 844-512-2921 (domestic) or 412-317-6671 (international). The replay passcode is 13759886. A live webcast of this conference call will be available on the "Investors" page of the Company's website (www.varonis.com), and a replay will be archived on the website as well. Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Key Performance Indicators Varonis believes that the use of non-GAAP operating income (loss) and non-GAAP net income (loss) is helpful to our investors. These measures, which the Company refers to as our non-GAAP financial measures, are not prepared in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP operating income (loss) is calculated as operating income (loss) excluding (i) stock-based compensation expense, (ii) payroll tax expense related to stock-based compensation, and (iii) amortization of acquired intangible assets and acquisition-related expenses. Non-GAAP net income (loss) is calculated as net income (loss) excluding (i) stock-based compensation expense, (ii) payroll tax expense related to stock-based compensation, (iii) amortization of acquired intangible assets and acquisition-related expenses, (iv) foreign exchange gains (losses) which include exchange rate differences on lease contracts as a result of the implementation of ASC 842, (v) amortization of debt issuance costs and (vi) acquisition-related taxes. The Company believes that the exclusion of these expenses provides a more meaningful comparison of our operational performance from period to period and offers investors and management greater visibility to the underlying performance of our business. Specifically: Stock-based compensation expenses utilize varying available valuation methodologies, subjective assumptions and a variety of equity instruments that can impact a company's non-cash expenses;Payroll taxes are tied to the exercise or vesting of underlying equity awards and the price of our common stock at the time of vesting or exercise, factors which may vary from period to period;Acquired intangible assets are valued at the time of acquisition and are amortized over an estimated useful life after the acquisition, and acquisition-related expenses are unrelated to current operations and neither are comparable to the prior period nor predictive of future results;The Company incurs foreign exchange gains or losses from the revaluation of its significant operating lease liabilities in foreign currencies as well as other assets and liabilities denominated in non-U.S. dollars, which may vary from period to period;Amortization of debt issuance costs, which relate to the Company’s convertible senior notes issued in 2020 and 2024, are a non-cash item; andAcquisition-related taxes are unrelated to current operations and neither are comparable to the prior period nor predictive of future results. Free cash flow is calculated as net cash provided by or used in operating activities less purchases of property and equipment and capitalized internal-use software. Adjusted free cash flow is calculated as free cash flow excluding cash paid for acquisition-related costs. We believe that free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow are useful indicators of liquidity that provide information to management and investors about the amount of cash provided by or used in our operations that, after adjusting for the investments in property and equipment, capitalized internal-use software and acquisition-related costs, can be used for strategic initiatives. Each of our non-GAAP financial measures is an important tool for financial and operational decision making and for evaluating our own operating results over different periods of time. The non-GAAP financial measures do not represent our financial performance under U.S. GAAP and should not be considered as alternatives to operating income (loss) or net income (loss) or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures may not provide information that is directly comparable to that provided by other companies in our industry, as other companies in our industry may calculate non-GAAP financial results differently, particularly related to non-recurring, unusual items. In addition, there are limitations in using non-GAAP financial measures because the non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in accordance with GAAP, and exclude expenses that may have a material impact on our reported financial results. Further, stock-based compensation expense and payroll tax expense related to stock-based compensation have been, and will continue to be for the foreseeable future, significant recurring expenses in our business and an important part of the compensation provided to our employees. Also, the amortization of intangible assets are expected recurring expenses over the estimated useful life of the underlying intangible asset and acquisition-related expenses will be incurred to the extent acquisitions are made in the future and acquisition-related taxes may be incurred to the extent acquisitions are made in the future. Additionally, foreign exchange rates may fluctuate from one period to another, and the Company does not estimate movements in foreign currencies. Finally, the amortization of debt issuance costs are expected recurring expenses until the maturity of the convertible senior notes in 2029. The presentation of non-GAAP financial information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the directly comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. Varonis urges investors to review the reconciliation of our historical non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measures included below, and not to rely on any single financial measures to evaluate our business. A reconciliation for non-GAAP operating income (loss), non-GAAP net income (loss), and free cash flow referred to in our “Financial Outlook” is not provided because we do not guide on their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. As these are forward-looking statements, such reconciliation is not available without unreasonable effort due to the high variability, complexity, uncertainty and difficulty of estimating certain items such as stock-based compensation and currency fluctuations, which have an impact on our consolidated results. The actual amounts of such reconciling items will have a significant impact on the Company’s most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. The Company believes the information provided is useful to investors because it can be considered in the context of the Company’s historical disclosures of this measure. SaaS ARR is a key performance indicator defined as the annualized value of active SaaS contracts in effect at the end of that period. Similarly, SaaS ARR excluding conversions is the annualized value of active SaaS contracts excluding the impact of conversions. The contracts are annualized by dividing the total contract value by the number of days in the term and multiplying the result by 365. The annualized value of contracts is a legal and contractual determination made by assessing the contractual terms with our customers. The annualized value of such contracts is not determined by reference to historical revenues, deferred revenues or any other GAAP financial measure over any period. SaaS ARR is not a forecast of future revenues, which can be impacted by contract start and end dates and renewal rates. Forward-Looking Statements This press release contains, and statements made during the above referenced conference call will contain, "forward-looking" statements, which are subject to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including regarding the Company's growth rate and its expectations regarding future revenues, operating income or loss or earnings or loss per share. These statements are not guarantees of future performance but are based on management's expectations as of the date of this press release and assumptions that are inherently subject to uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict. Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements include the following: the impact of potential information technology, cybersecurity or data security breaches; risks associated with anticipated growth in Varonis’ addressable market; general economic and industry conditions, such as foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations and expenditure trends for data and cybersecurity solutions; Varonis’ ability to predict the timing and rate of subscription renewals and their impact on the Company’s future revenues and operating results; risks associated with international operations; the impact of global conflicts on the budgets of our clients and on economic conditions generally; competitive factors, including increased sales cycle time, changes in the competitive environment, pricing changes and increased competition; the risk that Varonis may not be able to attract or retain employees, including sales personnel and engineers; Varonis’ ability to build and expand its direct sales efforts and reseller distribution channels; risks associated with the closing of large transactions, including Varonis’ ability to close large transactions consistently on a quarterly basis; new product introductions and Varonis’ ability to develop and deliver innovative products; Varonis’ ability to provide high-quality service and support offerings; the expansion of cloud-delivered services; and risks associated with our convertible notes and capped-call transactions.

Varonis, which belongs to the Zacks Security industry, posted revenues of $173.13 million for the quarter ended March 2026, surpassing the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 4.54%. This compares to year-ago revenues of $136.42 million. The company has topped consensus revenue estimates three times over the last four quarters. The sustainability of the stock's immediate price movement based on the recently-released numbers and future earnings expectations will mostly depend on management's commentary on the earnings call. Varonis shares have lost about 23.6% since the beginning of the year versus the S&P 500's gain of 4.8%. What's Next for Varonis?While Varonis has underperformed the market so far this year, the question that comes to investors' minds is: what's next for the stock? There are no easy answers to this key question, but one reliable measure that can help investors address this is the company's earnings outlook. Not only does this include current consensus earnings expectations for the coming quarter(s), but also how these expectations have changed lately. Empirical research shows a strong correlation between near-term stock movements and trends in earnings estimate revisions. Investors can track such revisions by themselves or rely on a tried-and-tested rating tool like the Zacks Rank, which has an impressive track record of harnessing the power of earnings estimate revisions. Ahead of this earnings release, the estimate revisions trend for Varonis was mixed. While the magnitude and direction of estimate revisions could change following the company's just-released earnings report, the current status translates into a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) for the stock. So, the shares are expected to perform in line with the market in the near future. You can see the complete list of today's Zacks #1 Rank (Strong Buy) stocks here. It will be interesting to see how estimates for the coming quarters and the current fiscal year change in the days ahead. The current consensus EPS estimate is $0.01 on $176.44 million in revenues for the coming quarter and $0.08 on $727.94 million in revenues for the current fiscal year. Investors should be mindful of the fact that the outlook for the industry can have a material impact on the performance of the stock as well.

The consensus EPS estimate for the quarter has been revised 0.4% higher over the last 30 days to the current level. Fortinet's revenues are expected to be $1.73 billion, up 12.4% from the year-ago quarter. |

Original source text
April 29, 2026 Tuesday's MarketsS&P 5007,139 (-0.49%)Nasdaq 24,664 (-0.9%)Dow 49,142 (-0.05%)Bitcoin $76,352 (-0.76%) Source: Image created by Jester AI. 1. Enphase Falls After Earnings Slump Enphase Energy (ENPH +8.70%) dropped more than 10% in pre-market trading, after posting a 31% fall in non-GAAP earnings per share for its fiscal first quarter, year over year (YoY). Recommended in Stock Advisor by Team Rule Breakers, the maker of solar energy technology saw U.S. revenue fall sharply – against a backdrop of tariff costs and oil-focused energy priorities. Tougher domestic trading was offset in part by international expansion. "Europe is increasingly becoming a battery-critical market": CEO Badrinarayanan Kothandaraman spoke of "solar and battery activations up healthy double digits across multiple European markets." But due to competition, he said "we are reducing our distributor list prices for batteries by approximately 10% in May, which follows a 20% reduction for microinverters already implemented from December." Management expects $280 to $310 million revenue in Q2: Following Q1 revenue of $282.9 million, we should see non-GAAP gross margins stable between 44% and 47% – as Enphase targets commercialization of next-generation products. 2. Up 23% Tuesday, Kiniksa Is More Than a One-Drug Story Kiniksa (KNSA +4.69%) is now a profitable, fast-growing biotech with a clear compounding path. ARCALYST is driving 50%+ growth w/ rising adoption, expanding prescribers, and multi-year patient use. This creates durable, recurring-like revenue. Penetration is still early, with meaningful upside as usage moves earlier in treatment. The company is reinvesting smartly. They're driving AI-powered marketing w/ targeted outreach. This should continue to accelerate growth. Its pipeline (KPL-387, KPL-1161) is designed to extend rather than disrupt the franchise with better dosing and convenience. Lots of cash generation oncoming and a large remaining market, Kiniksa is evolving into a long-term pharma franchise. It really is not a one-drug story. 3. Tuesday After-Market Earnings Roundup Booking Holdings (BKNG +1.92%) reported a 16% first-quarter revenue rise YoY, with 338 million room nights sold. Recommended by both Team Hidden Gems and Team Rule Breakers, the stock dipped 4% after hours on the back of slower growth expected in Q2 due to travel disruption from Middle East conflicts. T-Mobile (TMUS +0.33%) ticked up 2% in pre-market trading, after mixed Q1 results saw growth in customer numbers, but a net income fall due to integration costs. Management upped its targets, and now expects 950,000 to 1.05 million new accounts for the full year. T-Mobile is a longtime SA rec by Team Rule Breakers. Varonis (VRNS +1.70%) – recommended in SA by Team Hidden Gems – popped around 15% before the market opened. Q1 Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) revenue smashed through the company's own expectations, with an 82% jump YoY – as total revenue grew 27%. The company lifted full-year SaaS Annual Recurring Revenue guidance, now expecting growth of 27% to 32%. 4. Today's Notable Fool Favorite Results Fiverr (FVRR 2.08%) reported a 1.6% YoY revenue dip in Q1 this morning, though it did beat management expectations. Founder and CEO Micha Kaufman spoke of "early momentum of our AI-led transformation," as the company shifts "from a transactional marketplace to a sophisticated work platform." The SA rec by Team Hidden Gems jumped over 10% in early trading. EMCOR (EME +4.63%) is poised to reveal Q1 earnings before today's opening bell, after posting a 20% YoY rise in revenue in Q4 of fiscal 2025. The stock is 54% ahead of the S&P 500 since November 2024's SA rec by Team Hidden Gems. eBay (EBAY +3.01%) is due to unveil Q1 figures this afternoon, after the online marketplace pioneer saw revenue jump 15% YoY in its previous quarter. The Dividend Investor rec has raised its annual dividend for 7 years in a row. 5. Your Take Which two of the Magnificent Seven do you think will be the best performers over the next 5 years, and why?

VRNS Q1 Earnings Surpass Expectations, Revenues Increase Y/Y | FMP Stock News | |
|
Original source text
Key Takeaways Varonis reported Q1 EPS of 6 cents vs. expected loss, with revenues up to $173.1M, beating estimates.VRNS saw SaaS revenues jump to $161.1M, driving ARR up 69% year over year to $683.2M.Varonis raised 2026 outlook, guiding up to $737M revenues and projecting continued SaaS-led growth. Varonis Systems (VRNS - Free Report) came out with first-quarter 2026 earnings of 6 cents per share, in contrast to the Zacks Consensus Estimate of a loss of 5 cents.VRNS posted revenues of $173.13 million in the first quarter of 2026, beating the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 4.5%. This compares with year-ago revenues of $136.4 million. Varonis beat the Zacks Consensus Estimates in each of the trailing four quarters, with an average surprise of 116.7%. Varonis’ strong performance in the first quarter of 2026 can be attributed to SaaS momentum and rising demand for automated compliance products. VRNS Revenue Mix Skews Further Toward SaaSVaronis continued to benefit from its SaaS transition in the first quarter of 2026. SaaS revenues rose to $161.1 million compared with $88.6 million in the year-ago quarter, highlighting the expanding base of cloud-delivered contracts. Legacy streams continued to contract as customers shifted to the SaaS platform. Term license subscription revenues declined to $6.9 million from $31.5 million a year ago, while maintenance and services revenues fell to $5.2 million from $16.4 million, with management attributing most of the declines to conversions. Varonis Tightens Profitability Despite Transition HeadwindsNon-GAAP gross profit for the quarter was $134.9 million, translating to a gross margin of 77.9%, down from 80.2% in the prior-year period. The modest compression aligns with the company’s broader SaaS revenue recognition dynamics and ongoing platform evolution. On the cost side, non-GAAP operating expenses totaled $136.3 million. That produced a non-GAAP operating loss of $1.4 million compared with a $6.5 million loss a year earlier, with operating margin narrowing to negative 0.8% from negative 4.7%. VRNS Cash Generation Remains Solid, Buybacks ContinueAs of March 31, 2026, Varonis had $899.5 million in cash, cash equivalents, marketable securities and short-term deposits, down from $921 million at the end of the previous quarter. Varonis generated $49.0 million of free cash flow in the first quarter compared with $65.3 million a year ago. The company noted that results included acquisition-related costs, and adjusted free cash flow was $61.6 million for the period. The company also returned capital via repurchases, buying back 5,355,445 shares at an average price of $24.67 for a total of $132.1 million. Varonis Leans Into AI Security and Expanding Use CasesTotal SaaS ARR in the reported quarter was $683.2 million, up 69% year over year, reflecting both organic subscription expansion and the ongoing conversion of customers to the SaaS platform. Management reported $11.3 million of conversion ARR in the quarter and finished with about $83.7 million of non-SaaS ARR remaining. Operationally, management emphasized accelerating demand tied to securing enterprise data for AI adoption, pointing to customer traction in managed detection and response capabilities and AI-related offerings. The company also highlighted early customer interest in newer products added through acquisitions, including Atlas, positioning it as a control plane for AI models, agents and pipelines that complements Varonis’ data security platform. VRNS Raises Full-Year View and Guides Q2 for GrowthFor the second quarter of 2026, Varonis expects revenues to be in the range of $175-$178 million, implying 15-17% year-over-year growth. The Zacks Consensus Estimate is pegged at $176.4 million. The company projects breakeven to earnings of a penny per diluted share for the second quarter of 2026. It also expects SaaS ARR growth to be in the range of 24-25% year over year, excluding conversions. For full-year 2026, management raised its outlook and now expects revenues to be between $731 million and $737 million, implying growth of 17-18% year over year. The Zacks Consensus Estimate is pegged at $728 million. The company projects total SaaS ARR between $814 million and $845 million, and free cash flow to be in the range of $100-$105 million. VRNS’ non-GAAP operating income is expected to be in the band of $7-$9 million and non-GAAP earnings between 11 cents and 12 cents. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for 2026 earnings is pegged at 8 cents. Zacks Rank and Stocks to ConsiderCurrently, VRNS carries a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold). Some better-ranked stocks in the broader Zacks Computer and Technology sector are Arista Networks (ADI - Free Report) , Advanced Energy (AEIS - Free Report) and Applied Materials (AMAT - Free Report) , each carrying a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy) at present.

Grabar Law Office Investigates Claims on Behalf of Long-term Shareholders of Varonis Systems, Inc. (VRNS) | FMP Stock News | |
|
Original source text
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania--(Newsfile Corp. - May 3, 2026) - Grabar Law Office is investigating claims on behalf of shareholders of Varonis Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: VRNS). The investigation concerns whether certain officers and directors breached the fiduciary duties they owed to the company.If you purchased Varonis Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: VRNS), prior to February 4, 2025, and still hold shares today, you can seek corporate reforms, the return of funds back to the company, and a court approved incentive award at no cost to you whatsoever. You are encouraged to visit https://grabarlaw.com/the-latest/varonis-shareholder-investigation/, contact Joshua Grabar at [email protected], or call 267-507-6085. WHY? As alleged in an underlying securities fraud class action complaint, Varonis Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: VRNS), through certain of its officers, provided investors with materially false or misleading information concerning Varonis' expected annual recurring revenue ("ARR") for the fiscal year 2025. Defendants' statements included, among other things, confidence in the Company's ability to maintain ARR projections while converting both its federal and non-federal existing on-prem customers to the software-asa-service ("SaaS") alternative offering. Such statements were made while failing to disclose material adverse facts concerning the true state of Varonis' ability to convert its existing customer base; notably, that it was not truly equipped to convince existing users of the benefits of converting to the SaaS offering or otherwise maintain those customers on its platform, resulting in significantly reduced ARR growth potential in the near-term. When Varonis announced its financial results for the third quarter of fiscal 2025, disclosing a significant miss to ARR and reducing its projections for the full fiscal year 2025, the stock suffered a massive single-day decline of over 48%.

5 Cybersecurity Stocks That May Be Acquired in 2026's M&A Wave | FMP Stock News | |
|
Original source text
Cybersecurity M&A is reaccelerating in 2026 as platform consolidation, AI disruption, and hyperscaler appetite collide. Cisco/Splunk and Google/Wiz reset the deal calculus, and CrowdStrike’s January 2026 purchase of Seraphic Security and Zscaler’s February 2026 acquisition of SquareX kicked off a browser-security arms race. OpenAI’s Trusted Access for Cyber program in April 2026 effectively anointed Palo Alto, CrowdStrike, and Zscaler as platform consolidators, squeezing sub-scale pure plays. Below are five pure-play vendors most positioned as 2026 acquisition candidates. Treat each entry as an investment thesis.1. SentinelOne SentinelOne (NYSE: S | S Price Prediction) is the most-discussed takeout name in the cyber field. The endpoint vendor crossed $1.06 billion annual recurring revenue (ARR) (+23% year over year) in its most recent quarter and posted a record 7% non-GAAP operating margin, yet shares trade at $16.33, down 14.7% over one year and 61.6% from 2021 levels. Market cap stands near $5.6 billion on a 5.64× price-to-sales multiple, well below those of peers like CrowdStrike and Zscaler. Endpoint protection is core to any platform roll-up. Federal differentiation via newly earned GovRAMP High status sweetens the strategic case for Cisco, Palo Alto, or a hyperscaler. Analyst targets average $18.50 with 24 Buy ratings against 13 Holds. Note that founder-CEO Tomer Weingarten has previously walked away from sale talks, and the company is executing operationally, which reduces urgency. 2. Tenable Tenable Holdings (NASDAQ: TENB) fits the classic leveraged buyout (LBO) profile: durable cash flow, decelerating growth, sub-scale platform. Q1 FY2026 delivered revenue of $262.06 million (+9.58% year over year) and a 320 bps operating-margin expansion to 23.6%, with FY26 free-cash-flow guidance of $285 million to $295 million. Recurring revenue runs at 96% of total. The stock trades at $21.31, down 32.4% over 12 months, on a forward P/E near 11. Tenable was reportedly explored by Permira in 2024. Vulnerability management is increasingly bundled into broader platforms, making Tenable a natural tuck-in for Palo Alto, or a fresh take-private for Thoma Bravo or Permira. However, a $338 million buyback authorization and Gartner Leader status could push the board to hold out for a steep premium. 3. Rapid7 Rapid7 (NASDAQ: RPD) is the most distressed name on this list. Shares trade at $6.37, down 74.7% over one year and 91.9% over five, with market cap collapsing to $426 million. Q1 FY2026 revenue of $209.69 million declined 0.27% year over year, ARR fell 0.6% to $832 million, and FY26 guidance implies a 2% to 3% revenue contraction. And $597.6 million of convertible senior notes are classified as current liabilities. That combination of cheap valuation, balance-sheet pressure, and decent SIEM/XDR assets makes Rapid7 the highest-probability private-equity buyout, carve-up, or strategic tuck-in. Jana Partners has previously pushed for a sale. The risk here is that the convertible note overhang complicates clean LBO math, and the analyst consensus target is $7.25, with 21 Holds signaling muted Wall Street conviction. 4. Varonis Systems Varonis Systems (NASDAQ: VRNS) owns the data-security and data security posture management niche, the hottest M&A subsector behind Rubrik and Cyera comps. SaaS ARR jumped 69% year over year to $683.2 million, and SaaS revenue rose 82% to $161.06 million. Total Q1 FY2026 revenue grew 26.9% year over year, with management raising FY26 revenue guidance to $731 million to $737 million. Despite the operational momentum, shares trade at $28.00, down 38.2% over 12 months. AI workloads are turning data security into a board-level priority, making Varonis a natural fit for Microsoft (already a Purview integration partner), Palo Alto, or CrowdStrike. Yet a forward P/E near 167× reflects an expensive SaaS transition that any strategic acquirer would need to underwrite, alongside active securities litigation tied to prior forward guidance. 5. Qualys Qualys (NASDAQ: QLYS) is the prototypical private equity take-private candidate: cash-flow rich, decelerating, and clean. FY2025 produced $669.1 million in revenue, $198.3 million of net income, and $304.4 million of free cash flow (+31%). Q1 FY2026 GAAP operating margin reached 35%, and the company holds a 29.4% profit margin and 37.7% return on equity. Growth is the catch. Calculated current billings growth decelerated from 13% to 6% in Q4 2025, and shares trade at $91.53, down 30.82% over one year. A forward P/E near 13 fits cleanly with a Thoma Bravo-style take-private. Founder-CEO Sumedh Thakar has shown no public appetite for a sale, and any deal involving Qualys could face antitrust scrutiny over vulnerability-management overlap if paired with Tenable. Conclusion Five themes tie this list together: Depressed valuations against operational fundamentals Platform pressure from Palo Alto Networks, CrowdStrike, Zscaler Hyperscaler appetite for data and identity layers PE dry powder targeting sub-$6 billion software AI redrawing the build-versus-buy line Anthropic’s Claude Code Security tool in February 2026 underscored that point-solution moats are eroding. Antitrust scrutiny, premium expectations, and financing conditions remain the key swing variables. While no deal is a sure thing, each of these targets offers a compelling strategic blueprint for a takeover. |

Varonis Announces Integration with the Claude Compliance API | FMP Stock News | |
|
Original source text
The data and AI security leader extends visibility and alerting with deeper integration with Claude Enterprise and Claude Platform May 21, 2026 13:00 ET | Source: Varonis Systems, Inc.MIAMI, May 21, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Varonis Systems, Inc. (Nasdaq: VRNS), today announced an integration with the Claude Compliance API. The integration brings Anthropic’s Claude Enterprise and Claude Platform activity into Varonis' Atlas AI Security Platform. Security and governance teams use Atlas to monitor AI usage across their organizations and alert on misuse — whether employees are using Claude Enterprise for knowledge work and analysis, or development teams are using Claude Platform to build AI-powered applications and agents. As AI systems become deeply embedded in enterprise workflows, the security stack must keep pace. When AI agents are involved, data is accessed directly, at machine speed, at a scale that outpaces human oversight. Visibility into what those systems are doing, and what data they can reach, is no longer optional. “Every AI system you deploy is a direct path to your data — no application layer, no built-in security controls, no speed limit. You can’t secure what you can’t see,” said Ron Bennatan, VP of AI and Data Security Strategy at Varonis. “Our integration with the Claude Compliance API gives security teams visibility into Claude usage across the enterprise: what’s being used, by whom, and whether it’s aligned with policy.” Extending Visibility and Oversight to Claude Enterprise Claude Enterprise gives every employee access to chat, Claude Code, and Claude Cowork — empowering teams across the organization to work faster, produce better outcomes, and tackle more complex challenges. Varonis Atlas ingests Claude Enterprise activity and administrative events, enabling security and governance teams to: Monitor conversational content, including chats, uploaded files, and projectsDetect anomalies and misuse in real timeMaintain audit records to support internal governance and compliance assessments Supporting Secure Development on Claude Platform The Claude Platform is a powerful, customizable system to build AI-enabled products, services, and agents — with frontier Claude models, a builder-first developer experience, and connections to your data and systems via MCP and skills. As development teams scale AI to the application layer, Atlas provides visibility into how those systems are built and how they operate: Monitor assistants and agents created with Claude PlatformStore audit events and generate real-time alerts on risky behaviorProactively stress-test assistants and agents for vulnerabilities, including prompt injection AI Security with Data Context Atlas connects AI activity to the underlying data: what’s sensitive, who has access, and whether that access is appropriate. This integration is part of Varonis’ broader platform approach to securing AI across its lifecycle — from discovery and posture management to runtime protection and governance. Varonis’ integration with the Claude Compliance API is available today. Organizations can begin with a free trial with full access to Atlas’ AI inventory, posture management, security testing, runtime guardrails, and compliance reporting functionality.

Why Is Varonis (VRNS) Up 10.8% Since Last Earnings Report? | FMP Stock News | |
|
Original source text
A month has gone by since the last earnings report for Varonis Systems (VRNS - Free Report) . Shares have added about 10.8% in that time frame, outperforming the S&P 500.Will the recent positive trend continue leading up to its next earnings release, or is Varonis due for a pullback? Before we dive into how investors and analysts have reacted as of late, let's take a quick look at the most recent earnings report in order to get a better handle on the important catalysts. VRNS Q1 Earnings Surpass Expectations, Revenues Increase Y/YVaronis Systems came out with first-quarter 2026 earnings of 6 cents per share, in contrast to the Zacks Consensus Estimate of a loss of 5 cents. VRNS posted revenues of $173.13 million in the first quarter of 2026, beating the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 4.5%. This compares with year-ago revenues of $136.4 million. Varonis’ strong performance in the first quarter of 2026 can be attributed to SaaS momentum and rising demand for automated compliance products. VRNS Revenue Mix Skews Further Toward SaaSVaronis continued to benefit from its SaaS transition in the first quarter of 2026. SaaS revenues rose to $161.1 million compared with $88.6 million in the year-ago quarter, highlighting the expanding base of cloud-delivered contracts. Legacy streams continued to contract as customers shifted to the SaaS platform. Term license subscription revenues declined to $6.9 million from $31.5 million a year ago, while maintenance and services revenues fell to $5.2 million from $16.4 million, with management attributing most of the declines to conversions. Varonis Tightens Profitability Despite Transition HeadwindsNon-GAAP gross profit for the quarter was $134.9 million, translating to a gross margin of 77.9%, down from 80.2% in the prior-year period. The modest compression aligns with the company’s broader SaaS revenue recognition dynamics and ongoing platform evolution. On the cost side, non-GAAP operating expenses totaled $136.3 million. That produced a non-GAAP operating loss of $1.4 million compared with a $6.5 million loss a year earlier, with operating margin narrowing to negative 0.8% from negative 4.7%. VRNS Cash Generation Remains Solid, Buybacks ContinueAs of March 31, 2026, Varonis had $899.5 million in cash, cash equivalents, marketable securities and short-term deposits, down from $921 million at the end of the previous quarter. Varonis generated $49.0 million of free cash flow in the first quarter compared with $65.3 million a year ago. The company noted that results included acquisition-related costs, and adjusted free cash flow was $61.6 million for the period. The company also returned capital via repurchases, buying back 5,355,445 shares at an average price of $24.67 for a total of $132.1 million. Varonis Leans Into AI Security and Expanding Use CasesTotal SaaS ARR in the reported quarter was $683.2 million, up 69% year over year, reflecting both organic subscription expansion and the ongoing conversion of customers to the SaaS platform. Management reported $11.3 million of conversion ARR in the quarter and finished with about $83.7 million of non-SaaS ARR remaining. Operationally, management emphasized accelerating demand tied to securing enterprise data for AI adoption, pointing to customer traction in managed detection and response capabilities and AI-related offerings. The company also highlighted early customer interest in newer products added through acquisitions, including Atlas, positioning it as a control plane for AI models, agents and pipelines that complements Varonis’ data security platform. VRNS Raises Full-Year View and Guides Q2 for GrowthFor the second quarter of 2026, Varonis expects revenues to be in the range of $175-$178 million, implying 15-17% year-over-year growth. The company projects breakeven to earnings of a penny per diluted share for the second quarter of 2026. It also expects SaaS ARR growth to be in the range of 24-25% year over year, excluding conversions. For full-year 2026, management raised its outlook and now expects revenues to be between $731 million and $737 million, implying growth of 17-18% year over year. The company projects total SaaS ARR between $814 million and $845 million and free cash flow to be in the range of $100-$105 million. VRNS’ non-GAAP operating income is expected to be in the band of $7-$9 million and non-GAAP earnings between 11 cents and 12 cents. How Have Estimates Been Moving Since Then?In the past month, investors have witnessed a downward trend in fresh estimates. VGM ScoresCurrently, Varonis has a nice Growth Score of B, though it is lagging a lot on the Momentum Score front with an F. Following the exact same course, the stock was allocated a grade of F on the value side, putting it in the fifth quintile for this investment strategy. Overall, the stock has an aggregate VGM Score of D. If you aren't focused on one strategy, this score is the one you should be interested in. OutlookEstimates have been broadly trending downward for the stock, and the magnitude of these revisions indicates a downward shift. Interestingly, Varonis has a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold). We expect an in-line return from the stock in the next few months. |

Bentley Systems: Street-Beating Earnings And Structural Tailwinds Justify A 'Buy' | FMP Stock News | |
|
Original source text
I stick with a "Buy" rating for Bentley Systems after assessing its outlook over different time horizons. Its near-term outlook is favorable, given the outperformance of its Resources business, Seequent, and a shift towards a higher subscription revenue mix. AI and geopolitics offer long-term catalysts; BSY should benefit from an increased emphasis on energy security and agentic AI's rise, supporting increased software expenditures. |
