UiPath shares drop almost 8% after cautious Q3 outlook and selling pressure dominate session
UiPath Inc (PATH) fell 7.89% after investor sentiment turned cautious due to softer third-quarter revenue guidance and concerns about growth following its latest earnings report. The move is reinforced by near-term seller pressure, with the stock trading below its 20-day moving average and multiple momentum indicators remaining bearish.
Highlights
- UiPath posted fiscal second-quarter 2027 revenue of $410.26 million and adjusted earnings per share of $0.15 with four straight quarters of GAAP profitability.
- Annual recurring revenue rose to $1.938 billion but third-quarter guidance was set conservatively due to macroeconomic uncertainty and shifting customer adoption.
- Shares of UiPath trade below near-term resistance with sellers dominating intraday action and a projected five-day range of $12.01 to $16.01.
Cautious outlook from new CFO weighs despite profit milestone
UiPath Inc released its fiscal second-quarter 2027 results, reporting revenue of approximately $410.26 million and adjusted earnings per share of $0.15. Annual recurring revenue increased to $1.938 billion, and the company achieved its fourth consecutive quarter of GAAP profitability. Guidance for the third quarter was set cautiously by the new CFO due to macroeconomic uncertainty and shifting customer adoption patterns, though price action has remained under broader selling pressure.
Short-term bearish momentum persists as medium-term structure holds
UiPath is trading below its 20-day moving average at $16.68, but remains above the 50-day ($13.9) and 200-day ($12.89) moving averages, indicating near-term seller pressure but sustained medium- and long-term bullish structure. The 50-day versus 200-day alignment remains bullish, with $14.81 as the near-term ceiling and $13.9 as the nearest floor; Ichimoku Kijun at $15.49 is reinforcing resistance. Momentum readings are mixed: the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) signals strong buy, but the Average Directional Index (ADX) and Commodity Channel Index (CCI) both flag selling pressure. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) sits at 45.39 and forecasts sell, reflecting softening demand, while Stochastic RSI at 0 and Bull/Bear Power (BBP) at -0.56 both register oversold and confirm sellers dominate intraday trading. Awesome Oscillator direction is neutral and does not reinforce either trend. The stock declined to $14.01, down 7.89% with a downside gap of approximately $0.05 or 0.33%, and is currently trading near the bottom of its daily range. Intraday volatility stands at 10.47%. Sellers have controlled the session after early weakness, in line with several bearish momentum indicators.
Earlier, analysts noted that persistent downside risk was dominating UiPath's technical outlook supported by sustained selling pressure and mixed market signals. The latest trading session reaffirms this cautious stance, with bearish momentum indicators prevailing and a critical risk now centered on whether the $13.9 floor can hold amid heightened volatility.
