Airbnb
Airbnb (NASDAQ:ABNB) is anticipated to announce its Q4 earnings on Feb 13, after the market closes, with analysts forecasting an EPS of $0.65 and revenues of $2.16B.
Earlier this month, several Wall Street firms raised their price targets on Airbnb ahead of the upcoming quarterly report.
Deutsche Bank raised the price target on Airbnb to $141.00 from $105.00 while maintaining a Hold rating.
On ABNB, we raise our 4Q nights expectations given constructive data checks with AirDNA and we are now ahead of the Street by ~1%. That said, we believe that this beat is well understood at this point and look for 1Q nights in line with the Street suggesting 2 points of Y/Y growth deceleration to start the year. Beyond the 1Q outlook, we expect Airbnb to give constructive commentary on full-year margin given the benefits of cross-currency FX fees as well as a measured stance towards fixed cost growth for the year.
Meanwhile, UBS raised the price target on Airbnb to $148.00 from $125.00 while maintaining a Neutral rating.
According to ProTips, the company holds more cash than debt on its balance sheet, shows impressive gross profit margins, and its net income is expected to grow this year.
Cisco Systems
Cisco Systems (NASDAQ:CSCO) is scheduled to report its Q2 earnings on Feb 14, after the market close, with consensus estimates at $0.84 for EPS and $12.71B for revenues.
Earlier this week, Evercore ISI expressed a cautious stance as Cisco approaches its earnings announcement, while still maintaining its Outperform rating and a price target of $55.00. The firm highlighted concerns due to a noticeable slowdown in the enterprise networking market, as indicated by industry peers and partners.
Near-term outlook is challenging given enterprise networking weakness, but bullish messaging around the cloud/AI opportunity could provide some support even if they report weaker numbers."
Furthermore, reports from Reuters this week indicated that Cisco is contemplating significant organizational changes, including a substantial reduction in its workforce. According to sources familiar with the matter, the digital communications giant is planning to restructure its business and seeks to let go "thousands of employees," in order to focus "high-growth areas."
Coinbase
Coinbase Global (NASDAQ:COIN) is expected to release its Q4 earnings on Feb 15, after the market closes. Wall Street consensus stands at $0.0256 for EPS and $822.32M for revenues.
The cryptocurrency exchange received mixed analyst views last month, with Oppenheimer upgrading it to Outperform based on several positive catalysts, while JPMorgan downgraded it to Underweight, citing potential disappointment from Bitcoin ETF expectations.
