What this transaction means for investors

Bienville Capital Management’s exit from its position in monday.com during the first quarter of 2026 is not a surprise. Wall Street soured on software stocks in Q1 of this year after realizing artificial intelligence could take away business from software companies. This does not mean monday.com is on the verge of collapse. Far from it.

In the first quarter, monday.com delivered revenue of $351.3 million, representing a strong 24% increase over the prior year. The company expects double-digit year-over-year sales growth to continue in Q2, forecasting revenue of $354 million to $356 million.

This revenue growth trend indicates monday.com’s business remains healthy. There’s no sign that the company is adversely being affected by AI. Consequently, Bienville Capital’s exit does not mean monday.com is a bad investment.

In fact, the stock’s forward price-to-earnings ratio of 17 is around a low point for the past year. This suggests monday.com shares are at a reasonable valuation, and given its sales growth, it looks to be a worthwhile stock to own for the long haul.
