Gerald Pascarelli has given his Hold rating due to a combination of factors related to Vita Coco Company’s current market position and future prospects. The company holds a leading position in a high-growth category, which justifies its premium valuation in the consumer staples sector. Despite the potential for strong third-quarter results and exceeding growth targets, Pascarelli remains cautious.
Looking ahead to 2026, he expresses concern about the company’s ability to maintain its momentum, as it faces the challenge of achieving strong sales comparisons over consecutive quarters. The high market sentiment surrounding COCO adds to this cautious outlook, suggesting that while the company is performing well, the sustainability of its growth trajectory remains uncertain.
Based on the recent corporate insider activity of 139 insiders, corporate insider sentiment is negative on the stock. This means that over the past quarter there has been an increase of insiders selling their shares of COCO in relation to earlier this year.
