Wells Fargo analyst Steven Cahall upgraded Spotify Technology to Overweight from Equal Weight with a price target of $180, up from $121. The company’s operating expenditure is demonstrating leverage as income losses improve, and it should break-even in Q1 of 2024, the analyst tells investors in a research note. Wells sees Spotify’s margins and valuation as “upward bound with margin delivery rerating” the shares. Spotify is “coming off margin probation” and its price increase could boost its margins on music, contends the analyst. Atlantic Equities this morning also upgraded Spotify.
