Carvana's father-son duo made $11 billion on the stock surge

Shares of Carvana traded as low as $3.62

That decline was
in part
due to skyrocketing interest rates
that kept consumers from purchasing used cars,
which in turn pushed
Carvana to restructure its debt,
amid whispers of a potential bankruptcy.

Shares of Carvana soared
trading at $120, reaching its highest level in years.

That was due to better-than-expected results for its first quarter,
which featured a 16% sales boost; during that quarter

The used-car dealer’s stock has surged
by more than 3,000% since its 2022 record low.

MarketWatch: Carvana gets its first upgrade since Hindenburg short-selling report

Upgrade for Carvana stock comes as Ally Financial renews loan-buying pact

Carvana, the online used-car retailer that last week was the target of a short-selling research report, got its first broker upgrade since then which says the controversy has sparked a buying opportunity.

Brad Erickson, an analyst at RBC Capital Markets, lifted Carvana's rating to outperform from sector perform, not even a week after Hindenburg Research authored a short-selling research report, in large part on worries over its ability to sell auto loans.

Carvana's stock (CVNA) is down 7% in the new year, after a meteoric 365% gain in 2024.

Carvana shares rose 4% in premarket trade.

Erickson lifted his price target to $280 from $270 as well, saying Wall Street underestimates how much Carvana will expand its market share.

He also said Carvana can profitably expand to work with more commercial and fleet buyers. It will be able to deleverage further owing to a resurgence in demand and profitably, the analyst added.

On the controversy on whether Carvana is having trouble selling the loans it originates, Erickson said the private sale of $800 million of loans last year was done on similar terms as in the past, and on Monday Ally Financial (ALLY) renewed its relationship with Carvana.

Terms call for Ally to buy up to $4 billion of loans over the next year.

RBC bullish on Carvana stock as unit upside and TAM drive opportunity

On Tuesday, RBC Capital Markets upgraded Carvana stock from Sector Perform to Outperform, increasing the price target to $280 from $270. The decision follows Carvana's remarkable recovery, with InvestingPro data showing a stunning 303% return over the past year.

The company has achieved a perfect Piotroski Score of 9, indicating exceptional financial strength. RBC Capital analysts now see the recent pullback in Carvana's stock as a buying opportunity.

The upgrade comes with a positive outlook on Carvana's business trajectory. Analysts at RBC Capital believe that Carvana's retail unit sales have the potential to exceed expectations, especially as vehicle supply conditions improve.

Supporting this optimism, InvestingPro data reveals revenue growth of 12.21% in the last twelve months, with a healthy current ratio of 3.25 indicating strong operational liquidity. They also consider the company's Gross Profit per Unit (GPU) to be largely sustainable, countering recent concerns in the market.

Furthermore, RBC Capital's analysts are optimistic about Carvana's prospects in the online car marketplace. They anticipate that the company will continue to show improvements in both margin and balance sheet strength. The analysts expect these factors to contribute to a clearer pathway toward generating real free cash flow (FCF) for Carvana.

The updated price target is based on a 28 times multiple of the firm's projected enterprise value to 2026 EBITDA, and RBC Capital has also increased their estimates for Carvana's 2025 financials. They suggest that Carvana's constrained supply business model, combined with a large and still underpenetrated total addressable market (TAM), could potentially make it an unexpected compounder over time.

RBC Capital also notes risks to their outlook, including the sustainability of GPU levels and the ability to maintain retail volume momentum. While the company trades at elevated multiples with an EV/EBITDA of 28.59, InvestingPro analysis suggests the stock is slightly undervalued at current levels.

n other recent news, Carvana Co (NYSE:CVNA). has secured a notable agreement with Ally Bank and Ally Financial (NYSE:ALLY) Inc., collectively known as the "Ally Parties," to sell up to $4 billion in automotive finance receivables. This arrangement follows an amendment to their existing Master Purchase and Sale Agreement and is expected to provide Carvana with a significant influx of capital.

The online auto retailer also reported record-breaking Q3 earnings, with a 34% year-over-year increase in retail units sold, leading to a 32% revenue surge. Carvana's net income reached $148 million, with an operating income of $337 million and an adjusted EBITDA of $429 million.

RBC Capital Markets reiterated Carvana at Sector Perform, JPMorgan reaffirmed an Overweight rating, and Needham increased its stock price target for Carvana to $330, maintaining a Buy rating on the stock.

In a significant shift, Morgan Stanley (NYSE:MS) moved from an Underweight to an Equal-weight rating for Carvana. These recent developments reflect a strong financial performance and market position for Carvana, despite some concerns raised by analysts.

Big wealthy companies don't have uniformly smart employees.

Interesting, all the big names linked to this. JP Morgan, Ally Financial....

Yes, there've been several. But I think Carvana will eventually pay the price.

And the arithmetic where they pay the most for cars, sell them cheapest and make far more than anyone in the business.

BTW, Carvana stock rose today, but Hindenburg short targets often trade perversely like that for a time. See Icahn's company (IEG) as an example.

Yes! The stuff about the loans was very funny. Required annual income: $5,100...

Loved "anyone who can fog a mirror qualifies for their car loans."

They ARE funny...

Car Guys Look at the Carvana Story. Hilarious.

Hindenburg rarely gets short picks wrong. Brilliant and gutsy group of analysts. They think CVNA is rubbish. Read the report for yourselves...

Not “wrong” just timing

Perhaps it's about to speed up. Hindenburg put out a report today:

This went from 3 to 155 and you are still not believing in this. What more do you want...300?

I haven’t shorted this… yet. I have only shorted one stock in my entire life and that was Sears.
This one actually has a better feeling to short than sears did but for some unknown reason people can’t read financials anymore or it no longer matters.

CarvanaMadoff will eventually unravel. Their fundamentals as they pertain to car sales/cost/rehab are not legitimate, in my opinion

It should be on the otc.

Carvana (NYSE:CVNA) was upgraded by analysts at Royal Bank of Canada to a "sector perform" rating. They now have a $170.00 price target on the stock, up previously from $166.00. This represents a 9.1% upside from the current price of $155.79.

This pump and dump will leave many bag holding

Another beast mode from cvna $$$$$$

Sell if u want. It appears it doesn’t matter. Loll
