Why It's Important: Friday's plunge is attributable to a billings miss by the company and a slew of downgrades and price target revisions by sell-side analysts that followed.

The company's management talked about a shift in demand as pandemic tailwinds dissipated.

Ark, however, is optimistic. "We believe the transition from paper to digital agreements is enduring and expect growth to re-accelerate in the long-term as management refocuses go-to-market efforts," the fund said in a stock report.

DocuSign closed Friday's session down 42.22% at $135.09 and were seen slipping an incremental 0.77% in after-hours trading.
