If you believe OKTA can materially expand operating margin and ROIC from current levels, then hold or accumulate selectively because the current valuation embeds a very harsh earnings multiple despite decent growth and a strong balance sheet.
OKTA trades at 113.2x P/E versus MSFT at 26.9x, while the provided implied price of $35.29 sits 76.2% below the current price of $148.32. That gap is partly explained by OKTA’s much weaker profitability and returns, despite a stronger gross margin than MSFT.
