Mark Zgutowicz has given his Buy rating due to a combination of factors including Getty Images Holdings’ ability to maintain its 2025 revenue growth guidance despite facing macroeconomic pressures. The company’s performance in the first quarter was impacted by weaker demand, particularly in the Agency sector, but it still managed to uphold its growth outlook driven by its Corporate and Media divisions.
Another reason for the Buy rating is the anticipated cost and revenue synergies from the pending merger with Shutterstock, which could enhance Getty’s financial performance. Additionally, Getty’s data licensing remains a vital revenue stream, even as the company navigates challenges from generative AI models and ongoing litigation. Despite some headwinds, the company has not experienced significant product cannibalization, and its Corporate sector remains robust, supporting the Buy recommendation.

According to TipRanks, Zgutowicz is a 5-star analyst with an average return of 16.2% and a 56.29% success rate. Zgutowicz covers the Communication Services sector, focusing on stocks such as Stagwell, Snap, and Taboola.com.

In another report released on May 6, Wedbush also maintained a Buy rating on the stock with a $7.70 price target.
