What are Wall Street analysts saying about Lendingtree stock?
Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about Lendingtree stock:
- 1. According to Zacks Investment Research, "Shares of LendingTree have underperformed the industry, over the past six months. Further, the company has a disappointing earnings surprise history, beating the Zacks Consensus Estimate in only one of the trailing four quarters. LendingTree has been witnessing escalating expenses on enhancement of products and advertising-related costs, which restricts bottom-line expansion of the company. Further, mortgage-related product revenues of the company are affected by lower supplies of homes and relatively higher mortgage rates. However, the company’s expansion strategies through acquisitions and diversified products will likely further boost its top-line growth. Also, involvement in steady capital-deployment activities help enhance shareholders' confidence in the stock. Nevertheless, stretched valuation is another headwind for the company." (9/27/2019)
- 2. SunTrust Banks, Inc. analysts commented, "We will review our model and valuation following the conference call." (7/25/2019)
- 3. Northland Securities analysts commented, "We believe 2019 has some front loaded expenses and this also pressured Adj. EBITDA margins which we believe were a little soft. The press release highlighted a difficult market continuing for mortgage, especially refinance. On the call we will look to hear more about the strong results from QuoteWizard, cross selling opportunities, credit card and other non-mortgage products. Total revenues of $262.4M were up 45% Y/Y despite mortgage revenues of $46.0M down 37% Y/Y but down only 1% sequentially due to continued weakness in refis. On the call, will be interesting to learn more about demand, volumes, pricing, filters for both purchase and refi. Non-mortgage revenues of $216.4M were up 101% Y/Y (39% ex. QuoteWizard). Non- mortgage revenues are now 82% of total revenues up from 41% in the June 2016 quarter. Credit card revenues of $54.5M were up 18% Y/Y." (4/26/2019)
