Wedbush cuts Beyond Inc. stock target to $10, keeps Outperform rating

On Tuesday, Wedbush Securities adjusted its outlook on Beyond Inc. (NYSE: BYON), slashing the price target to $10.00 from the previous $15.00, while maintaining an Outperform rating on the company’s shares. The revision reflects a more conservative valuation of 0.13 times the firm’s 2027 revenue estimate, a decrease from the earlier 0.27 multiple, along with an estimated $3 per share for Beyond’s Medici assets. According to InvestingPro data, the stock has declined nearly 80% over the past year, though current analysis suggests the stock is undervalued at its current trading level of $4.10.

Beyond Inc. has reportedly finished a phase of strategic cost-cutting and restructuring aimed at enhancing profitability and expanding its operations. The company is now focused on integrating the Buy Buy Baby brand with Bed Bath & Beyond and utilizing its tZERO technology to foster customer loyalty. Stifel analysts recognize that Beyond’s leadership has a clear strategy for driving revenue growth that aligns management incentives with shareholder interests.

Despite the lowered price target, Stifel’s commentary suggests optimism about Beyond’s future, anticipating that the company will see substantial improvements in revenue and profitability throughout 2025. This growth is expected as a result of Overstock.com (NYSE:BYON) expanding its close-out business and Bed Bath & Beyond, along with Buy Buy Baby, effectively reaching customers at various stages of life.

However, the path to profitability might be prolonged due to existing market challenges and the ongoing impact of tariffs. Despite these hurdles, analysts at Wedbush express confidence in Beyond’s financial strategy. They believe the company possesses sufficient capital or access to additional resources to achieve profitability by 2026 and to continue its expansion thereafter.

Despite the revenue miss, Beyond Inc. improved its gross margin to 25%, a 560 basis point increase. The company has been actively restructuring, including a significant reduction in workforce and the elimination of a distribution center, which contributed to a 72% improvement in adjusted EBITDA loss compared to the previous year. Beyond Inc. is also focusing on strategic initiatives such as launching new product lines and expanding its luxury and designer categories. Analysts have noted the company’s efforts to position itself for growth, with expectations of sequential revenue growth in Q2 and Q3 2025.
