ZYNGA (ZNGA): RAISING PRICE TARGET AT TMT CONFERENCE - COWEN

June 2, 2017 6:34 AM EDT

COWEN ANALYST, DOUG CREUTZ. REITERATED HIS OUTPERFORM RATING ON SHARES OF ZYNGA (NASDAQ: ZNGA) AND RAISED HIS PRICE TARGET TO $4.25 AFTER THE CFO, GERARD GRIFFIN, SPOKE AT COWEN'S ANNUAL TMT CONFERENCE.


AT THE CONFERENCE, THE CFO REITERATED
management's objective of further optimizing the current operating model of Zynga's mobile game portfolio. The analyst expects a mix of actual cost reductions in G&A and incremental leverage from more productive marketing and R&D spend as the company continues to reinvest in its live services and add new features to grow core game bookings. Gerard also reiterated management’s long-term target to reach a 30%+ non-GAAP EBITDA margin, though noting that reaching that level will require a meaningful expansion of bookings per day (whether through further growth in existing games or successful new launches).

The analyst didnt mention a catalyst for the upgrade but with the stock trading at his prior target, it appears that he chose to raise the PT rather than cut the rating. THE NEW PT OF $4.25 IS UP from $3.50.
