Deutsche Bank has upgraded Bytes Technology Group and Cerillion to 'buy' ratings while downgrading Softcat to 'hold' in its latest review of the UK software and IT services sector. The bank raised Bytes' price target to 500p and lowered Cerillion's target to 1400p despite the upgrade. Softcat's target was increased to 2140p but the rating was cut due to concerns that its share price had outpaced fundamentals. This reshuffle reflects improved investor sentiment as fears over AI disrupting traditional software business models have eased, benefiting resellers like Bytes and Softcat who earn margins on third-party software distribution.
