The analyst added that the company’s improved cost management could result in enhanced margins and EBITDA.
Post commented, “After a year of relative underperformance vs larger peers (both revenue acceleration and stock performance with PINS up 3% vs NASDAQ up 31%), we expect significant focus on Pinterest into 2024 on renewed advertiser traction and impact of new ad partnerships.”
