TD Cowen raised the firm's price target on Alphabet (GOOG) to $350 from $335 and keeps a Buy rating on the shares. The firm increased the company's search estimates on its "positive" U.S. survey data.

William Blair took a "sober look" at Warby Parker's (WBRY) partnership with Google (GOOG, GOOGL). Warby shares are down 3% to $28.83 in afternoon trading. In the early days, "maybe" Google's artificial intelligence glasses can research $20M in annual sales, "but certainly not in 2026," the analyst tells investors in a research note. The firm says it has heard of "some relatively aggressive assumptions" on what the Google partnership with Warby Parker for AI-enabled glasses could contribute from a revenue and margin standpoint in recent weaks. Blair analyzed the potential for the glasses relative to the partnership between Meta (META) and EssilorLuxottica for the Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses. The firm points out that EssilorLuxottica has 55-times the amount of physical stores compared to Warby Parker. At an average price point of $450, assuming the Google AI glasses are priced competitively to Ray-Ban Meta, this would support total unit sales of 45,000, Blair estimates.

Citizens upgraded Warby Parker (WRBY) to Outperform from Market Perform with a $30 price target. The firm views the upcoming launch of Google's (GOOG, GOOGL) artificial intelligence glasses on Warby's platform as a "significant catalyst" for the shares. The glasses are important for Google's ongoing distribution of search and other products, which explains why the company is willing to commit $75M to cover Warby's expenses for the launch, the analyst tells investors in a research note. Citizens believes the glasses can drive Warby Parker's estimates significantly higher. The stock in morning trading is up 4% to $24.16.
