ServiceNow, Inc. (NYSE:NOW) is one of the worst performing agentic AI stocks to watch in 2026.
As of the April 2, 2026 close, ServiceNow shares were down 30.8% year to date, finishing at $102.00 versus $147.45 on January 2, 2026.
Stifel turned more cautious on April 2, even while keeping its bullish stance. Analyst Brad Reback maintained a Buy rating but cut his price target to $135 from $180. The firm said its system-integrator checks had “once again down-ticked modestly” from the prior quarter. Reback added that several checks pointed to a seasonal rebuilding of pipelines after an aggressive year-end push, while also describing the U.S. federal spending environment as “very weak.” Stifel’s overall read on first-quarter channel checks was “somewhat lackluster.”
That softer near-term commentary stands in contrast to ServiceNow’s latest reported results. On January 28, the company said fourth-quarter 2025 subscription revenue rose 21% year over year to $3.466 billion, total revenue increased 20.5% to $3.568 billion, and current remaining performance obligations climbed 25% to $12.85 billion.
