Synopsis

RBC Capital lowered its target on Figma to $31 from $38 and kept a ‘Sector Perform’ rating on the shares, according to TheFly.

  • Morgan Stanley said that significant revenue revisions in the firm's forecast are somewhat offset by downward pressure on free cash flow due to a lower operating margin posture. 
  • Stifel lowered its price target to $30 from $40 and kept a ‘Hold’ rating on Figma shares, saying it was waiting for clarity on margin implications.
  • Figma on Wednesday posted a 40% year-on-year growth in quarterly revenue, which came in at $303.8 million, and beat street expectations of $293.15 million.

Figma Inc. (FIG) reported market-beating fourth-quarter (Q4) 2025 results and outlook on Wednesday, sending shares of the digital design company higher in after-hours trading. At the time of writing, FIG stock climbed more than 6%.

Goldman Sachs, Stifel, JPMorgan, and Wells Fargo also lowered price targets on Figma.

Analyst Rationale

RBC Capital’s analyst Rishi Jaluria said that while Figma delivered a "solid" Q4 earnings beat, the firm would prefer to wait for a better entry point before turning more constructive.

Morgan Stanley’s Elizabeth Porter also noted the company’s strong Q4 results, adding, however, that significant revenue revisions in the firm's forecast are somewhat offset by downward pressure on free cash flow due to a lower operating margin posture.

Stifel lowered its price target to $30 from $40 and kept a ‘Hold’ rating on Figma shares, saying it was waiting for clarity on margin implications. Meanwhile, Goldman Sachs lowered its price target on Figma to $35 from $40 and maintained a ‘Neutral’ rating.
