What are Wall Street analysts saying about eBay stock?

Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about eBay stock:

1. SunTrust Banks, Inc. analysts commented, "We maintain Hold/$36 PT ($40 SOTP) going into 2Q19 earnings due out Wed. 7/17. We expect the results/FY19 outlook to be in line with muted Street expectations, showing continued strain in Marketplace GMV growth with slightly better revenue trends, largely driven by promoted listings. We don’t expect a material update on the on-going operating and portfolio reviews. The current capital allocation effectively pays investors to wait (~$5B in share buybacks & ~$500M annual dividend in 2019) until 2H20/2021, when payments/1P advertising should have a greater positive effect on the overall P&L." (7/16/2019)
2. Stifel Nicolaus analysts commented, "We believe Promoted Listings will continue to be a bright spot and expect revenue to nearly double in 2019, reaching approximately $380mm. We remain PT, which reflects a blend of our DCF and sum-of-the-parts analyses." (7/15/2019)
3. Benchmark Co. analysts commented, "We acknowledge that it is possible the Company could derive some incremental upside from the Advertising channel but feel the likelier outcome would be more of a wash from incremental pressure on GMV due to a further rationalization of marketing spend. We do note that eBay did spend during some high profile sporting events through 2Q, particularly on mobile, but believe that overall volume, particularly on broadcast, was way down. As such, we feel less confident in the mid-point of revenue guidance at $2.575 billion vs. our $2.56 billion estimate but suspect there could be a penny or so of upside vs. the $0.63 mid-point and consensus." (4/16/2019)
