Morgan Stanleyanalyst Stan Zlotsky downgraded Anaplan Inc. from Overweight to Equal-Weight and lowered the price target from $73 to $55, implying a 24 percent upside.

Zlotsky conducted another round of channel checks after the company’s Q3 earnings report, and the mixed checks suggest recent results “could be indicative of more prolonged challenges.”

Zlotsky thinks the upside in the stock could be limited given the ongoing challenges combined with investors’ low confidence in the management.
