Investor Insights

This summary was created by AI, based on 3 opinions in the last 12 months.

eBay Inc. (EBAY) has shown notable performance with a 45-49% increase in stock price over the past year, appealing to certain investors with its relatively low price-to-earnings (PE) ratio of approximately 12x. It features a modest dividend yield of 1.69%, highlighting its potential as a stable income-generating investment. While some experts point out the company's mature business model and competitive pressure from newer tech companies like Meta, they acknowledge strong EPS growth in recent quarters. The overall growth outlook appears restrained, with revenue projections of only 2-3% year-over-year and mid-single-digit EPS growth anticipated. Despite concerns regarding future growth catalysts, eBay remains a high cash flow stock, appealing to those seeking value in a more mature market segment.

Up 45% this year and still trades at only 12x PE. There will always be ebay, leverage to the consumer and open to AI developments.

WEAK BUY

Trevor Rose’s Insights - Trevor’s most-liked answers from 5i Research

EBAY has been trending up nicely over the last year, gaining 49% and paying a yield of 1.69%. EBAY is also quite cheap at a 12.6x forward earnings valuation. Growth outlook is not exciting, expecting revenue growth of 2-3% annually and mid-single digit EPS growth. Recent quarterly results have seen strong EPS growth. Our prior comments are relatively unchanged. We think it is a high cash flow, mature value stock and would not expect it to continue delivering over 45% returns.

DON'T BUY

Business model "old" in terms of internet business. Under threat from companies like Meta (Facebook). Better names to select (like Meta). Not sure what catalyst is for growth. Would not recommend buying at this time.

TOP PICK

Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly The online sales platform of EBAY is rightly valued now and is selected as a TOP PICK. Trading at 10x earnings, compared to 13x for peers and under 3x book, its strategy for streamlining operations will help improve its earnings going forward. It pays a nice dividend, backed by a payout ratio under 25% of cash flow. We recommend setting a stop loss at $35, looking to achieve $65.50 -- upside potential over 50%. Yield 2.08% (Analysts’ price target is $65.23)

DON'T BUY

Sells at 12x earning and in this market it could slip to 10x. He doesn't like the stock. The sentiment on eBay is still too bullish.

DON'T BUY

Has lost its mystique. Has had a nice move, as it's benefiting from the trend to digitization. Expected revenue growth is not that strong.

TOP PICK

Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly EBAY trades at a 19x PE and a forward PE of 7x -- making it one of the cheapest e-commerce online companies out there compared to a sector average 31x. They are on track to post another year of 20% increases in annual earnings. Millennials seem to be gravitating towards the direct sales model. It pays a reasonable dividend backed by a 6% payout ratio. We would buy this with stop-loss at $44, looking to achieve $63 -- over 25% upside. Yield 1.32% (Analysts’ price target is $62.48)

BUY

Research tells him this is now cheap and can go higher.
