Citi maintains Buy on Grab stock with a $6.25 target

Tuesday, Citi analysts, led by Alicia Yap, reaffirmed their Buy rating on Grab Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ: NASDAQ:GRAB) shares, maintaining a price target of $6.25. Currently trading at $3.48, the $14.16 billion market cap company has strong analyst support, with a consensus "Buy" recommendation. The endorsement follows Grab's product event, GrabX 2025, held in Singapore and broadcasted on YouTube on April 8. According to InvestingPro data, analysts see up to 63% upside potential from current levels. At the event, Grab's CEO & Co-founder, Mr. Anthony Tan, and Chief Product Officer, Mr. Philipp Kandal, discussed the company's AI investment strategy, consumer product enhancements, and AI tools for merchants and driver-partners.

The presentation highlighted Grab's "AI-first with heart" philosophy, focusing on AI solutions designed to benefit merchants and drivers. The company also unveiled an expansion of its consumer product offerings, targeting families and solo eaters, as well as the exploration of new consumer use cases.

During GrabX 2025, management showcased how the utilization of generative and agentic AI is set to improve the user experience, increase efficiency for merchants and driver-partners, and maintain Grab's competitive edge. These advancements are expected to result in lower delivery fees and better dispatch and fulfillment processes.

Citi's analysis suggests that the recent market sell-off, influenced by reciprocal tariff headwinds, presents an attractive entry point for investors. With revenue growing at 18.57% and net income expected to turn positive this year, the firm believes Grab's ongoing product innovation and proven track record of execution equip the company well to steer through current market uncertainties. The maintained Buy rating and $6.25 price target reflect Citi's confidence in Grab's strategic direction and market position.
