Reason
Citizens JMP analyst Trevor Walsh downgraded Planet Labs to Market Perform from Outperform without a price target. The firm cites valuation for the downgrade with the shares up 29% in the past month alone. In addition, at last week's investor day, management provided a "somewhat lackluster" long-term financial outlook despite the material business model shift toward satellite services and additional fleet capacity build-out, the analyst tells investors in a research note. Citizens the day left it "with more questions than answers."
Deutsche Bank raised the firm's price target on Planet Labs to $16 from $10 and keeps a Buy rating on the shares.
Needham raised the firm's price target on Planet Labs to $16 from $12 and keeps a Buy rating on the shares. Planet Labs management highlighted the company's strategic focus on satellite service deals and set new financial targets driven by its renewed revenue growth, the analyst tells investors in a research note. Needham models improving fundamentals through FY25 and FY26 as cost controls produce increased profitability.
