The enterprise automation software developer's shares have seen an increase of 6.91% over the last month, not keeping up with the Business Services sector's gain of 18.96% and outstripping the S&P 500's gain of 2.6%.

It is anticipated that the company will report an EPS of $0.19, marking a 13.64% fall compared to the same quarter of the previous year. Simultaneously, our latest consensus estimate expects the revenue to be $424.75 million, showing a 4.81% escalation compared to the year-ago quarter.
Investors should also pay attention to any latest changes in analyst estimates for UiPath. Such recent modifications usually signify the changing landscape of near-term business trends. As such, positive estimate revisions reflect analyst optimism about the company's business and profitability.
