INTA stock rose 4.47 percent to $40.21 in early trading on Friday driven by renewed analyst optimism and a product development update. The stock opened with a 1.3 percent gap up from the previous close and reached an intraday high of $40.28. The move follows a recent earnings update and a shift in analyst ratings that has improved investor sentiment.
What Happened
The stock's rise was supported by a Truist Securities analyst report that upgraded the price target to $45 while maintaining a Buy rating. Piper Sandler also raised its price target to $34 with a Neutral stance. Meanwhile Intapp announced that its AI product Celeste is designed to avoid answering sensitive questions in legal settings by saying "no comment" when necessary. This differentiates it from generic AI chatbots which can provide honest answers even when they shouldn't. The product update was highlighted in a Yahoo Finance headline as a key development for the legal tech space. The company also reported stronger than expected Q1 adjusted earnings guidance with a projected range of $0.39 to $0.41 per share versus the $0.34 estimate.
