What are Wall Street analysts saying about Wayfair stock?
Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about Wayfair stock:
- 1. According to Zacks Investment Research, "Wayfair is riding on its strengthening direct retail business across the United States and international regions. This continues to drive the company’s top line. Additionally, expanding active customer base is a tailwind. Further, the company stays confident about growth prospects in markets, namely the U.K. and Germany.This can be attributed to efforts to expand house-brand offerings in these countries. Further, the company is aggressively investing in international regions in order to bolster international presence, which remains a tailwind. Notably, the stock has outperformed the industry it belongs to over a year. However, the company is currently suffering from mounting investment expenses which are weighing on margin expansion." (9/14/2019)
- 2. Stifel Nicolaus analysts commented, "We believe Wayfair’s overall results are complicated by very heavy investment in its international operations overshadowing the beginnings of a positive profit ramp in the U.S. business. In 2019, we forecast U.S. EBITDA margin of -1.1% and International EBITDA margin of -22.4%. For 2020, our margin estimates are +0.5% and -15.1%, respectively. International accounts for approximately 15% of total company revenue." (8/21/2019)
