According to Odaily, Citi has issued a research report maintaining a "Neutral" rating on the electronic signature and agreement cloud platform DocuSign (DOCU.US), with a target price of $72. The report points out that although DocuSign’s management sent positive signals regarding the long-term potential of Intelligent Agreement Management (IAM), digital execution, and capital allocation at an investor meeting, Citi believes that more substantial evidence is needed to verify that IAM expansion can truly drive revenue growth back to the double-digit range.
