Comments
Loading...
  • Jefferies analyst Jonathan Matuszewski lowered the price target on Wayfair Inc W to $149 from $247, implying a 1% upside, and kept a Hold rating on the shares.
  • The move comes after Matuszewski's web traffic review that led him to cut his Q4 sales forecast by about 3%.
  • The analyst now sees an EBITDA loss versus a profit given his finding of more new versus existing visitors, which should hit ad expenses.
  • He is also revisiting the stock's valuation, given his expectation for "more sober" 2022 guidance that he sees forthcoming from Wayfair.
  • Price Action: W shares are trading higher by 1.24% at $147.53 on the last check Monday.
