Consensus Price Target

N/A

MarketBeat calculates consensus analyst ratings for stocks using the most recent rating from each Wall Street analyst that has rated a stock within the last twelve months. Each analyst's rating is normalized to a standardized rating score of 1 (sell), 2 (hold), 3 (buy) or 4 (strong buy). Analyst consensus ratings scores are calculated using the mean average of the number of normalized sell, hold, buy and strong buy ratings from Wall Street analysts. Each stock's consensus analyst rating is derived from its calculated consensus ratings score (0 to .5 = Strong Sell, .5 to 1 = Sell, 1 to 1.5 = Reduce, 1.5 to 2.5 = Hold, 2.5 to 3.0 = Moderate Buy, 3.0 to 3.5 = Buy, >3.5 = Strong Buy). MarketBeat's consensus price targets are a mean average of the most recent available price targets set by each analyst that has set a price target for the stock in the last twelve months. MarketBeat's consensus ratings and consensus price targets may differ from those calculated by other firms due to differences in methodology and available data.

Nintendo
Bull Case

green Wall Street bull icon

Here are some ways that investors could benefit from investing in Nintendo Co., Ltd.:

  • Nintendo Co., Ltd. recently reported a significant surge in operating profit, which jumped 150.5% year-over-year to 142.6 billion yen in the April-June quarter, driven by strong software sales and a favorable shift in the product mix toward digital content.
  • The company recorded a substantial one-time boost to its bottom line from a $300 million refund on U.S. tariffs, which contributed to a 53% spike in quarterly net profit and helped the firm beat analyst expectations for earnings per share by a wide margin.
  • Investors can benefit from the strong performance of the latest hardware generation, as the Switch 2 console continues to drive sales, with recent titles like Pokémon Pokopia surpassing 5 million units sold, indicating robust consumer demand for the new platform.
  • The stock currently trades at $14.07, which is well below its 52-week high of $24.29, potentially offering a valuation entry point for investors who believe the recent profit growth and software strength will sustain the company's long-term trajectory.
  • Short interest in the stock has decreased significantly, with a 40.3% drop in shorted shares during July, suggesting that market sentiment is shifting positively as investors reduce their bearish positions in the company.

Nintendo
Bear Case

Investors should be bearish about investing in Nintendo Co., Ltd. for these reasons:

  • Rising memory costs are creating significant headwinds for the company, as the cost of components for its hardware is increasing rapidly, which could squeeze future profit margins despite the current earnings beat.
  • Nintendo Co., Ltd. has issued full-year 2026 earnings guidance of 0.429 EPS, which is notably lower than the consensus estimate of 0.510, indicating that management expects a slowdown in profitability for the remainder of the fiscal year.
  • The company's revenue guidance of $13.1 billion for the current fiscal year falls short of the analyst consensus estimate of $14.8 billion, suggesting that overall sales growth may be stalling despite the recent profit spike.
  • Hardware sales for the Switch 2 are showing signs of deceleration, and the company faces higher memory costs that may necessitate price hikes, which could dampen consumer demand and limit the upside for the stock.
  • The consensus rating from nine research firms is currently "Hold," with four analysts issuing a hold rating and one issuing a sell rating, reflecting a lack of strong institutional conviction in the stock's immediate upside potential.
