RiverPark Large Growth Fund made the following comment about RingCentral, Inc. (NYSE:RNG) in its Q1 2023 investor letter:
"RingCentral, Inc. (NYSE:RNG): Despite better-than-expected 4Q results and strong profitability guidance for 2023, RNG shares were a top detractor for the quarter following lower than expected revenue guidance for the full year 2023. Investor concerns appear to be centered around the competitive dynamics in the space. We continue to believe that RNG remains far ahead of its competition in both product breadth and depth in what is an enormous market. RNG has consistently maintained its #1 product ranking by Gartner for Large Enterprises and continues to expand its channel partnerships with large scale telecom services firms including Alcatel-Lucent, Atos, Avaya and Mitel, giving the company a significant leg up in converting on-premises PBX customers.
