WBD

Analysts from Truist Securities and Benchmark have maintained a Buy rating for Warner Bros. Discovery Inc (WBD), despite lowering the price target from $18 to $17 and $26 respectively. The analysts are optimistic due to the success of Barbie, which crossed $1B in global box office, and the company's strong FCF and cost synergy execution. However, they noted soft results and a lack of recovery in the linear ad market. Barbie's partner, Mattel, Inc (MAT), has 14 projects in active development.
