Shopify Seen Benefiting from Capital-Light AI Model -- Market Talk

Dow Jones

Feb 10

1059 ET - Shopify is uniquely positioned to benefit from AI without the heavy spending that is pressuring the rest of the software sector. Martin Toner of ATB Cormark Capital says "structural operating leverage" is a key driver, noting that while others face margin compression, "we see upside to SHOP's high teens free cash flow margins." Toner upgrades the stock to outperform from sector perform and reiterates his C$250 price target, calling Shopify "the de facto winner in ecommerce" with more than 25% growth and a strengthening free-cash-flow trajectory. Toner says Shopify's capital-light model and early lead in agentic commerce create a cleaner, more attractive setup than peers weighed down by AI-related capex. Shares are up 8.1% to C$173.65.
