Palo Alto Networks CEO Calls for 90% Drop in AI Token Costs to Boost Enterprise Adoption

Palo Alto Networks Inc (NASDAQ:PANW) CEO Nikesh Arora stated on July 9 during a CNBC interview that AI token costs must decline by 90% to accelerate enterprise adoption of artificial intelligence. Arora emphasized that current high pricing acts as a barrier to widespread business integration of AI tools, while underscoring how broader AI deployment directly translates into increased revenue streams for the cybersecurity firm.

Palo Alto Networks specializes in securing AI infrastructure and models, enabling enterprises to build, deploy, and manage AI systems safely. It also protects clients against AI-driven cyber threats. In its fiscal Q3 2026, ending April 30, the company reported a 31% revenue surge to $3.1 billion and a 36% jump in backlog to $18.4 billion, citing surging demand tied to AI proliferation.

  • ■Analysts project over 96% upside potential in PANW shares.

  • ■87 hedge funds currently back the stock amid its nearly 90% year-to-date rally.

    • Arora’s remarks highlight how cost pressures in AI could influence enterprise spending patterns, positioning PANW as a key beneficiary of the ongoing AI revolution while raising questions about valuation sustainability in an increasingly competitive landscape.
