SentinelOne's AI Security Pitch Gains Mixed but Rising Analyst Support

SentinelOne, Inc. (NYSE:S) is one of the fastest-growing AI stocks to invest in now. In recent weeks, three major analysts issued fresh ratings on the company, each offering a different shade of market conviction.

On October 3, 2025, Shaul Eyal of TD Cowen maintained a Buy rating with a $24.00 price target, pointing to SentinelOne’s expanding growth potential and strategic positioning in AI‑driven cybersecurity.

Earlier, on September 16, Fatima Boolani of Citi reiterated a Hold rating, raising her price target from $19 to $20. Her cautious tone suggests some concern around competitive dynamics and near-term volatility.

More decisively bullish was Trevor Walsh of JMP Securities, who on September 9, 2025, maintained a Market Outperform rating with a $29.00 price target. His rating followed SentinelOne’s strong Q2 FY2026 earnings, where revenue hit $242.2 million and Annual Recurring Revenue crossed the $1 billion mark.

Founded in 2013, SentinelOne, Inc. (NYSE:S) uses behavioral AI to autonomously detect and neutralize threats across cloud, identity, and endpoint layers. It continues to expand its security stack through focused acquisitions and platform development.
