On Thursday, Needham maintained its Hold rating on shares of UiPath Inc. (NYSE: NYSE:PATH), a company specializing in Robotic Process Automation (RPA). According to InvestingPro analysis, PATH appears undervalued with strong financial health metrics, including a robust current ratio of 3.13. The decision follows insights from a discussion with the RPA Practice Head at an international UiPath implementation partner.

The conversation revealed a gradual improvement in demand, particularly for newer products like task mining and process discovery, which are gaining traction among established customers. This aligns with UiPath's impressive revenue growth of 16.5% and industry-leading gross profit margins of 83.38%. The implementation partner observed increased demand for UiPath's services in Africa and the Middle East, while noting that demand in the Americas and Europe remained unchanged.

The RPA Practice Head pointed out that the emergence of new Generation AI functionality is seen as an addition to RPA services rather than a substitute. This suggests a growing synergy between AI advancements and existing RPA solutions. Furthermore, while new clients are predominantly opting for UiPath's Cloud services, the rate of existing customers converting to the cloud is minimal. The expert emphasized that on-premises deployment is still a viable choice for new UiPath users.

In their analysis of the RPA market landscape, the expert conveyed that UiPath and Automation Anywhere stand out as the leading solutions. UiPath, in particular, was noted for offering the most comprehensive software platform.
