Atlanticus price target raised to $98 from $90 at B. Riley

B. Riley analyst Hal Geotsch raised the firm’s price target on Atlanticus (ATLC) to $98 from $90 and keeps a Buy rating on the shares. Atlanticus delivered a strong EPS report and outlook, prompting higher 2026/2027 estimates to $8.48/$11.53 on organic growth and accretion from the Mercury acquisition and Vive portfolio purchase, the analyst tells investors in a research note. Despite expectations for 20%+ EPS growth and ROE, shares are already pricing in macro-driven earnings risk, B. Riley says.
