Fair value Increased 1.10%Analysts modestly raised Symbotic’s price target to $49.13, citing optimism over its new modular system and accelerated revenue growth outlook, but remain divided due to lofty valuation and dependence on Walmart, yielding only a slight fair value increase.
Analyst Commentary
- Bullish analysts cite the rollout of Symbotic's new modular system design as a catalyst for faster deployment and improved system efficiency, which is expected to drive a significant step-change in growth.
- Upward price target revisions reflect expectations for a faster revenue ramp from 2027 to 2030 and a strong multi-year revenue growth trajectory.
- Elevated stock performance, with shares up over 120%-170% year-to-date, has prompted some bearish and neutral adjustments due to valuation concerns, as recent gains have outpaced business expansion and price target raises.
- Bearish analysts point to a lack of evidence for growth acceleration or new business wins beyond the main customer, Walmart, and flag ongoing sales headwinds in upcoming quarters as reasons for skepticism.
- Certain adjustments are driven by the view that Symbotic has already exceeded revised price targets and has outperformed peers in adjacent sectors, leading to rating downgrades despite a positive long-term growth outlook.
