Datadog (DDOG) is executing "very well" and end-market demand is inflecting, with the company's Q2 revenue growth guidance looking "impressive" and Q1 performance suggesting ongoing revenue growth acceleration, BofA Securities said in a Thursday note.

The company's announcement of two deals signed with artificial intelligence labs in "two of the world's largest technology companies" validates thesis that Datadog "solves mission critical and hard problems," BofA said, adding that accelerating foundational AI model usage and newly built specialized enterprise AI models are a tailwind for the company.

Datadog's Q1 results are a positive read for the other pure-play public observability vendors like Dynatrace (DT), while also being a positive signal for Snowflake (SNOW) and MongoDB (MDB) that play on similar themes of AI, digital transformations, and cloud migrations, BofA said.

BofA raised its earnings per share estimate on Datadog to $2.43 from $2.11 for 2026, to $2.66 from $2.35 for 2027, and to $3.06 from $2.65 for 2028.

BofA lifted its price target on the company's stock to $225 from $170 and maintained its buy rating.
