Bernie McTernan has given his Buy rating due to a combination of factors that highlight the positive outlook for Compass’s stock. The company’s second-quarter results showed adjusted EBITDA surpassing consensus expectations, which is a strong indicator of financial health. Additionally, Compass has demonstrated significant agent growth, achieving a record this quarter, which enhances its market position.
Another critical factor in McTernan’s rating is Compass’s operational efficiency, as evidenced by the company’s revised lower operating expense targets for 2025 and the implementation of a cost reduction plan for 2026. These strategic moves indicate a focus on improving profitability. Furthermore, McTernan views Compass as a prime opportunity to benefit from a potential recovery in the housing market, especially given the current expectations of more favorable mortgage rates.
