Needham upgraded AppLovin to Buy from Hold with a $700 price target. The firm's e-commerce work has given it added confidence in the trajectory of AppLovin's e-commerce revenue growth in 2026. In addition, the stock has pulled back off the highs from a month ago, the analyst tells investors in a research note. Needham upped AppLovin's e-commerce sales estimates for 2026 to $1.45B from $1.05B prior, as it now assumes the growth in advertisers from the self-service launch and ramp-up in spend more than offsets typical Q1 seasonality. The firm sees potential upside the numbers in a bull case, which assumes AppLovin revenue can experience a similar trajectory as TikTok.

Piper Sandler notes that a short report targeting AppLovin was released last night that alleges pre-IPO investors used illegal funds as the source of their investment and that AppLovin has become a vehicle for laundering illicit funds from Chinese and Southeast Asian criminal networks. However, the report "provides little evidence to support the claims," according to the analyst, who thinks investors will look past this report. The firm reiterates an Overweight rating and $800 price target on AppLovin shares.
