Movement Alert｜Figma Falls 5.05% in Regular Trading, CFO Says Company Is Willing to Sacrifice Margins to Drive AI Demand

Market Focus10-16

On October 16, Figma fell 5.05% in regular trading, trading at $21.758, with turnover of $55.8113 million.

The latest catalyst was management commentary indicating the company is willing to accept margin pressure in order to support AI-driven demand growth, reviving investor concerns that heavier AI investment could erode profitability.

Background context shows Figma's quarterly gross margin has declined from above 90% historically to the mid-80% range over the past year, while the company has also begun applying usage-based pricing for AI credits. That margin debate has already been reflected in analyst caution, including a recent target price cut to $22 from $25, even as the market remains divided over whether AI monetization can offset the profitability drag.
