Canoo Has 'A Multi-Billion Revenue Opportunity,' Says Bullish Analyst
Portfolio Pulse from priya@benzinga.com
Canoo Inc (NASDAQ:GOEV) has been highlighted by Benchmark analyst Michael Legg as having a multi-billion revenue opportunity, despite weak delivery numbers in its segment, including those reported by Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:TSLA). Legg initiated coverage with a Buy rating and a $5 price target, citing Canoo's limited competition in the Class 1 and Class 2 commercial fleet segment and a $3 billion sales pipeline, including $750 million in contracted orders with notable clients such as Walmart Inc (NYSE:WMT), the United States Postal Service, and the US military. The global light duty truck market's growth and government incentives for EVs are expected to fuel Canoo's market opportunities.
