Bernstein reiterates Market Perform rating on Liberty Formula One stock

Investing.com - Bernstein SocGen Group has reiterated its Market Perform rating on Liberty Media Corp-Liberty Formula One (NASDAQ:FWONA) with a price target of $110.00. According to InvestingPro data, the stock currently trades at $86.47, with analysts’ targets ranging from $99 to $110, suggesting potential upside.

The research firm acknowledged Formula One’s solid quarterly results but noted these were likely overshadowed by modest concerns regarding cost control, unclear MotoGP financials, and further M&A activities on an already leveraged business model.

Bernstein continues to view Liberty Media as an attractive platform for monetizing premium motorsports intellectual property, though it remains neutral on the stock as it believes current valuation already reflects multi-year prospects for high-single-digit revenue growth, margin expansion, and debt reduction.

Among the catalysts expected in the second half of 2025, including MotoGP integration and a new North American media rights deal, Bernstein is particularly focused on the profitability of this year’s Las Vegas Grand Prix.

The firm also highlighted interest in the less-tangible benefits the Las Vegas race provides to the broader Formula One ecosystem.

In other recent news, Liberty Media Corporation reported its financial results for the second quarter of 2025, noting a significant revenue increase for its Formula One Group. The company also announced the completion of its MotoGP acquisition, which was highlighted as a strategic initiative during its earnings call. Liberty Media emphasized growth potential in MotoGP and continued expansion in Formula One as part of its future guidance. The earnings call detailed these strategic initiatives, providing investors with insights into the company’s plans. Additionally, analysts have been closely monitoring these developments, although there were no specific upgrades or downgrades mentioned. These recent developments indicate Liberty Media’s focus on expanding its sports entertainment portfolio. The company’s financial performance and strategic moves are likely to be of interest to investors looking at its long-term growth prospects.
