Barrington Research analysts commented, "Valuation/: As the company moves towards the bundling of its services (fall 2019), the deployment of text-based tutoring (2H/19) and international expansion (fall 2019), we believe Chegg has opportunities to increase its reach by moving more significantly into high school, which, in turn, will help attract a greater portion of incoming college freshmen to its services and by moving more into international markets (Canada, the U.K., Australia) over time. Chegg has risen nearly 35% YTD (after rising 74% in 2018) and is trading at 8.9x our 2020 revenue estimate, at a premium to its Ed Tech peers (5.3x) and a group of high-growth SaaS companies (7.1x). Nevertheless, we are reiterating our OUTPERFORM investment rating and 12-month price target of $44 on the basis of its sustainable, above-average revenue growth." (4/17/2019)
