Share buyback and AI initiatives as earnings drive sentiment shift

UiPath is set to report its quarterly earnings after market close on May 28, with an earnings call scheduled for the same evening. The company recently expanded its AI capabilities by launching 'UiPath for Coding Agents,' which integrates coding tools from Anthropic, OpenAI, and Google, and completed the acquisition of WorkFusion to strengthen its offerings in AI agents for compliance and document-intensive workflows. UiPath was also named a Leader in Forrester's Wave for Document Mining and Analytics, and its board authorized a new $500 million share buyback program after concluding a previous $1 billion buyback.

Anton Kharitonov, expert at Traders Union, believes the recent short-term momentum in UiPath may prove deceptive. He notes the price action remains capped below the 200-day moving average, keeping the long-term trend negative. Kharitonov highlights that earnings optimism and news on AI expansions have failed to spark strong buy signals in leading technical indicators. He sees the range between $10.81 and $12.84 as a battleground with downside risks prevailing. "Until PATH reclaims and sustains above the $12.99 resistance, I remain skeptical of any sustainable uptrend here."

Viktoras Karapetjanc, expert at Traders Union, sees a constructive setup for UiPath ahead of earnings. He points to strategic gains in AI integration, a major acquisition, and renewed buyback authorization as signs that the bullish structure remains intact. Karapetjanc expects further growth if shares break through the $12.84 resistance zone, given management’s proactive initiatives. "With momentum building and leadership recognized by analysts, I believe market participants should prepare for upward continuation opportunities."

Momentum signals bullish bias despite overhead resistance near $13

UiPath stock is trading above its 20-day and 50-day moving averages ($10.54 and $10.74), but remains below the 200-day moving average at $12.99, suggesting bullish momentum in the short-to-medium term but longer-term resistance overhead. The next closest dynamic support is indicated by the Ichimoku Kijun at $10.33, with resistance aligning near the 200-day average and the round $13 level.

Earlier, analysts noted that UiPath was exhibiting renewed momentum, supported by recent AI integrations and pending a potential catalyst from its upcoming earnings report. With the stock now pushing higher ahead of the results and consolidation still in focus, volatility could increase sharply if price action breaks meaningfully above or below the current $10.81–$12.84 expected range.
