TL;DR

  • Our 2030 scenarios: about $2 a share if growth slows, about $6 in the middle, and about $15 if it keeps growing quickly.
  • Q3 revenue rose 48.5% to $62.4 million, and it expects $350 to $400 million in 2027, with an adjusted profit in the second half of that year.
  • Analysts’ average target is about $12.57, but those targets were set before the November 5 report, and the stock slid after it.
  • LemonTrades tells you what moved SoundHound, and why, as it happens, and warns you before its earnings.

SoundHound makes voice assistants for cars, restaurants and call centers. Here’s the math on what it would take to go higher from here.

How we got there

Per shareabout 550 million shares$2$6$15

We start from the middle of the company’s 2027 forecast. It has about 444 million shares now, and we assume about 550 million by 2030, since it has often paid for deals with stock and isn’t yet profitable.

Where SoundHound stands

  • Third quarter: revenue of $62.4 million, up 48.5%, and an adjusted EBITDA loss of $20.7 million.
  • Cash: $207.6 million.
  • Forecasts: $250 to $260 million in 2026 and $350 to $400 million in 2027, with an adjusted profit in the second half of 2027.
  • Changes: it completed its LivePerson deal on September 4 and cut 27% of its workforce.

What analysts say

Eight analysts rate it a Buy on average, with targets from $6 to $17 and an average of $12.57. Those targets were last updated on October 7, before the latest report, so some may come down. The stock’s 52-week range is $3.88 to $15.68.

What could go wrong

  • Competition: OpenAI, Google and Amazon all have voice AI, and they have far more money.
  • Deals: much of the growth comes from buying companies, so it’s harder to judge the underlying business.
  • Losses: if the 2027 profit target slips, it may need to sell more shares.
  • Volatility: small AI stocks can double or halve quickly.
