Coursera ( (COUR) ) has provided an update.

On December 17, 2025, Coursera, Inc. entered into a Merger Agreement with Udemy, Inc. and a Coursera subsidiary to combine the two online learning platforms in an all-stock transaction. The deal aims to create a larger, integrated digital education provider by unifying their course offerings and customer bases in the competitive online learning market.

On January 9, 2026, the companies filed required premerger notification forms under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act, and the U.S. Federal Trade Commission granted early termination of the waiting period effective February 9, 2026. Completion of the merger still depends on satisfying remaining customary closing conditions, including additional regulatory clearances and approvals from Coursera and Udemy stockholders, which will determine the transaction’s finalization and impact on stakeholders.

The most recent analyst rating on (COUR) stock is a Hold with a $7.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Coursera stock, see the COUR Stock Forecast page.

Spark’s Take on COUR Stock

According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, COUR is a Neutral.

The score is primarily supported by improving fundamentals—strong cash generation and a very low-debt balance sheet—along with generally constructive guidance for 2026. However, the stock is weighed down by weak technicals (clear downtrend) and limited valuation support due to a negative P/E and no dividend yield.
