Pinterest (NYSE:PINS) shares gained more than 3% pre-market today after Evercore ISI upgraded the company to Outperform from In Line and raised its price target to $41.00 from $30.00.
The rating change was based on several factors. First, there is evidence of stabilizing digital ad spend and potential for recovery in H2. Second, the operational improvements implemented by CEO Bill Ready are yielding positive results for users and advertisers. Third, these two factors indicate a fundamental turning point with significant revenue growth and margin expansion expected. Finally, Evercore ISI believes the current valuation is reasonable considering the company’s potential for sustained 30%+ EBITDA growth and consistent FCF generation.
The company is set to report its Q2/23 earnings on July 27. Street estimates stand at $0.12 for EPS and $695.71 million for revenues.
