Coupang shares moved higher as analysts said the worst may be behind the company, pointing to an ongoing share buyback program and a marketing push that is bringing users back as key near-term catalysts. At the same time, they trimmed their price targets and cut near-term EBITDA forecasts, but mostly kept Buy or Neutral ratings in place, signaling cautious optimism.
Investors appeared to focus more on the improving outlook and supportive capital returns than on the reduced earnings expectations, helping fuel the stock’s latest jump. The mixed analyst updates suggest that while growth and profits may be slower than previously hoped in the short run, sentiment around the longer-term story remains largely positive.
