Rivian, the electric vehicle manufacturer, has recently faced challenges in the market despite efforts to manage costs. While the company’s second-quarter results were better than expected on paper, with revenue exceeding estimates, net losses widened. This has led to a number of analysts downgrading their price targets for RIVN stock.
In Q2, Rivian reported an adjusted loss per share of $1.13, better than the expected $1.21 loss. However, net losses increased to $1.46 billion, compared to $1.2 billion in the same quarter last year. This has raised concerns among investors, especially as the company aims to increase sales and improve margins.
Analysts at Needham, Wells Fargo, and Bank of America Securities have all adjusted their price targets for RIVN stock, reflecting the uncertainty surrounding the company’s future performance. While some analysts maintain a positive outlook on Rivian’s long-term potential, others are more cautious.
Overall, RIVN stock currently has a moderate buy rating, with a mix of buy, hold, and sell recommendations from analysts. The average price target is $18 per share, indicating a potential upside for investors.
As Rivian continues to navigate challenges in the market, it will be important for investors to closely monitor the company’s sales figures and cost management strategies.
