JP Morgan downgrades Informa TechTarget and cuts price target by over 50%
-- JP Morgan downgraded Informa (LON:INF) TechTarget (NASDAQ:TTGT) to Underweight from Neutral and slashed its price target to $8 from $18, citing disappointing results, limited near-term catalysts and lackluster growth prospects. Shares of the company have dropped more than 60% year-to-date, falling from around $18 at the start of 2025 to near $7, underperforming the S&P 500's 2% gain. The downgrade follows the delayed release of FY24 results on June 4, which showed adjusted EBITDA of $82 million, roughly 18% below JP Morgan's estimate. While FY25 guidance implies flat revenue and modest EBITDA growth, the bank sees little evidence of a near-term turnaround. 'We do not see TTGT as having attractive near-term investment characteristics,' JP Morgan analysts wrote, noting management expects revenue declines in the first half of 2025 before a possible recovery later in the year. The firm said it lacks confidence in Informa TechTarget's ability to consistently deliver even low single-digit growth. Although the company operates in a relatively healthy macro environment, the weakness in IT sales and marketing budgets, which its business depends on, remains a drag. JP Morgan also highlighted a recent disclosure that the stock's sharp derating triggered impairment testing, with the company now expecting a non-cash goodwill charge in Q1 2025. While acknowledging the value of the company's proprietary data assets and the scale from the Informa-TechTarget combination, analysts said visibility into revenue synergies remains limited. A more constructive stance could emerge if end-market conditions improve or the firm pivots to a more defensive growth strategy. The new $8 price target implies a 6x EV/EBITDA multiple on 2026 estimates, in line with peers in cyclical software.
