Analysts publish price targets on CSCO, and they disagree. Where the share price actually sits among them shows which of their arguments the market is buying — and which it is ignoring.
19 analyst price targets from $110 to $150
as of 2026-08-25
The market is 15% below the median target — more cautious than the analysts.
The reconstruction
At $109, the stock sits at the 5th percentile of 19 published models, meaning the market almost entirely rejects the bull case for a structural growth transformation and prices the company close to its current, slower-growth reality.
What the disagreement turns on
Does the Security segment's organic growth sustain above 25% as the Splunk acquisition anniversary passes, or does it decelerate and leave the company dragged down by its declining Networking core? Segment revenue history can measure this, but the specific AI order run-rate cannot be verified with the data wired here.
