Investing.com - Stifel raised its price target on DoorDash Inc. (NASDAQ:DASH) to $239.00 from $214.00 on Thursday, while maintaining a Hold rating on the food delivery company’s shares. The stock has shown remarkable momentum, delivering a 112% return over the past year and currently trading near its 52-week high of $259.87.

The price target increase follows DoorDash’s second-quarter results, which exceeded expectations with gross order value (GOV) coming in above the top end of the company’s guidance range. EBITDA dollars also surpassed the guidance range, while margins were approximately in line with expectations. According to InvestingPro data, the company maintains strong fundamentals with a gross profit margin of 51% and robust revenue growth of 23.8% over the last twelve months.

DoorDash’s third-quarter guidance was stronger than anticipated, with GOV expectations at the midpoint 3% ahead of Wall Street consensus. The company attributed this strength to improved cohort performance, with both size and order frequency higher compared to last year and reaching all-time highs as the product continues to improve.

New areas of investment, including SevenRooms and new verticals, will become more of a focus in 2026. The pending Deliveroo (OTC:DROOF) acquisition is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2025.

Despite expressing encouragement about current trends in the core delivery business and DoorDash’s scaled advertising platform, Stifel remains on the sidelines, noting that the company’s valuation is approaching the upper end of its range over the past few years. This aligns with InvestingPro analysis, which indicates DoorDash is currently trading above its Fair Value, with a P/E ratio of 300x and high EBITDA valuation multiples.
