Stephens raised the firm’s price target on Upbound Group to $40 from $36 and keeps an Equal Weight rating on the shares. The company’s Q2 results beat consensus and provided a higher 2023 guidance, the analyst tells investors. While there are some concerns about lower EBITDA margins in Q3, given the implied 2H23 guidance, Stephens anticipates a return on marketing and other investments by Q4.
