BULLISH
On Nov 5, SS&C Technologies Holdings priced an upsized convertible senior notes offering of $1.05 billion, up from the originally planned $800 million, with a 2.75 % coupon and a 2031 maturity. The company also granted purchasers an option to buy an additional $150 million within a 13‑day window, and the private placement was restricted to qualified institutional buyers, with settlement scheduled for Nov 6, 2026. The proceeds were earmarked to support the expansion of SS&C’s investment, financial, and healthcare technology solutions, providing a low‑cost capital structure for future acquisitions and product development. Earlier on the same day, SS&C released its 2027 LP Survey, gathering insights from 400 private market professionals, and found that 62 % of respondents reported their portfolios exceeded expectations, with a rise in those reporting performance far above expectations. The survey highlighted a growing emphasis on technology and AI as critical selection criteria, noting that nearly one‑third of allocators now view a credible AI strategy as a prerequisite for allocating capital. These developments underscore SS&C’s focus on leveraging technology-driven management and securing capital to fuel its growth strategy.

Earnings Summary
In the most recent two quarters, Q3 2026 and Q4 2026, the company posted EPS of $1.78 and $1.69, respectively, both slightly below the $1.80 and $1.95 estimates, while revenue of $1.69 billion and $1.70 billion fell short of the $1.72 billion and $1.77 billion forecasts, indicating a modest deceleration in top‑line growth compared to the prior two quarters where EPS and revenue were above expectations. Historically, SS&C has maintained a steady upward trajectory in revenue, with YoY growth of roughly 10% in 2025 and 2026, and has consistently beat earnings estimates in 3 of the last 4 quarters, underscoring resilient profitability even as revenue growth slows. Recent news highlights the expansion of SS&C’s regulatory technology services with Capital Group and the launch of AI‑driven automation via its WorkHQ platform, both of which are expected to support margin expansion and reinforce the company’s competitive moat.

Reverse DCF

What growth is priced into SSNC?

CHEAP

At today's price, SS&C Technologies Holdings, Inc. needs to grow free cash flow about -2.5% a year for 3 years, slowing to a long-run rate by year 10, to justify its valuation at a 7.20% cost of capital. Over the last five years its revenue has trended at 5.5% a year, so the market is asking for 8.1 percentage points below its own delivered rate. On that basis SSNC looks priced below what its own growth record supports.

Up days (1y)
48%

SS&C Technologies Holdings, Inc. is currently running 24.6% annualised volatility over the last 21 sessions. Measured against SSNC's own 13 years of daily returns rather than a market-wide average, that is the 55th percentile — close to its own typical level, against a typical reading of 23.4%.

SSNC is trading -10.2% below its running peak. Across 13 full years on file, its median worst-drawdown-in-a-year was -21.7%, and the deepest was -48.8% in 2020. The current pullback is therefore shallower than what this stock gives back in a typical year, which is context worth having before treating it as a dislocation.

Price sits +9.2% from its 200-day moving average. Against every other day in its history, that gap ranks at the 63rd percentile — a somewhat wider gap than its own norm. Over the past year SSNC closed higher on 48% of sessions, and it is currently 1 session into a rising streak.

On November specifically: over 13 years of records, SSNC finished the month higher 9 of 13 times, with a median return of +3.9% and an average of +3.3%. Its strongest month historically has been July at +3.6% on average, its weakest September at -2.9%.

Overnight risk is measurable too: SSNC has opened more than 2% away from the prior close in 146 of 3,268 sessions (4.5% of the time), with the largest gaps running +13.1% and -10.3%.

Across the last 3 dated reports on file, SSNC moved an average of 4.1% in the session after earnings, closing higher 1 of those 3 times, with a median move of -1.9% and a largest of +7.6%.

All figures computed from 3,269 daily closes between 2013-11-06 and 2026-11-05, split-adjusted, recomputed daily. Percentiles are against SSNC's own 13-year history, not a peer group or index.
