Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about Green Dot stock:
- 1. Northland Securities analysts commented, "We believe the GDOT story today is about this new Unlimited product/card and we continue to believe traction will be difficult and the margin on the Unlimited card will be lower. As such, we are establishing 2020 estimates which are less than consensus estimates." (9/13/2019)
- 2. According to Zacks Investment Research, "Green Dot’s second-quarter 2019 earnings and revenues beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate. The company's long-term strategic plan to be a ‘New Kind of Bank’ is leading to impressive results. Its Banking as a Service or BaaS platform programs are growing very quickly and contributing significantly to GDV and active card growth. The company's long-lasting relationship with Walmart is a key driver of operating revenues. Despite such positives, tough competition from companies across financial services, financial technology services, retail banking, transaction processing and consumer technology industries remains a concern for Green Dot. It experiences fluctuation in revenues due to seasonal factors. The company does not have any plans to pay cash dividends on common stock. Green Dot’s stock has declined in the past year."
