Investing.com - Benchmark has reiterated its Buy rating on Dave Inc (NASDAQ:DAVE) with a price target of $320.00, representing a 68% upside from the current price of $190. According to InvestingPro data, 5 analysts have recently revised their earnings expectations upward, with the company expected to be profitable this year.
The research firm maintained its positive outlook on the financial technology company following a Benchmark-hosted investor meeting with Dave CEO Jason Wilk and CFO Kyle Beilman held earlier this week.
Benchmark noted that the meeting provided clarity regarding Dave’s increase in 28-day delinquencies during the second quarter of 2025, which the firm suggested had overshadowed the company’s performance.
According to Benchmark, this delinquency uptick "obscured a remarkably strong operating performance across almost every metric" for the quarter.
The investor meeting also offered insights into Dave’s operating strategy and growth trajectory following the company’s Q2 2025 financial results, Benchmark reported.
