The Panic-Proof Portfolio (Stockchase Research)EverQuote Inc.EVERTOP PICKSep 04, 2025
Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly
EVER is an online platform that matches potential insurance clients with providers. It's an ingenious way to participate in a product that is a must, without taking on operational risk of the supplier -- acting as a broker. And the financials speak volumes as the company boosted EPS over 129% over the year and is building cash reserves aggressively. It trades at 19x earnings, 5x book and supports a robust 34% ROE. We recommend setting a stop-loss at $19, looking to achieve $31 -- upside potential of 28%. Yield 0%

We continue to recommend a stop at $19, looking to achieve $33 -- upside potential of 28%. Yield 0%
