Narrowing the focus, TKO has outpaced the State Street Communication Services Select Sector SPDR ETF (XLC). The exchange-traded fund has gained about 14.9% over the past year. However, the ETF’s marginal dip on a YTD basis outshines the stock’s single-digit losses over the same time frame.

On May 6, TKO shares closed up by 1.9% after reporting its Q1 results. Its EPS of $1.12 topped Wall Street expectations of $0.91. The company’s revenue was $1.60 billion, exceeding Wall Street forecasts of $1.59 billion. TKO expects full-year revenue in the range of $5.7 billion to $5.8 billion.

For the current fiscal year, ending in December, analysts expect TKO’s EPS to grow 118.3% to $5 on a diluted basis. The company’s earnings surprise history is disappointing. It missed the consensus estimate in three of the last four quarters while beating the forecast on another occasion.

Among the 24 analysts covering TKO stock, the consensus is a “Moderate Buy.” That’s based on 16 “Strong Buy” ratings, one “Moderate Buy,” and seven “Holds.”

This configuration is more bullish than two months ago, with 15 analysts suggesting a “Strong Buy,” and one recommending a “Strong Sell.”

On May 7, Guggenheim analyst Curry Baker maintained a “Buy” rating on TKO and set a price target of $232, implying a potential upside of 19.5% from current levels.

The mean price target of $231.05 represents a 19.1% premium to TKO’s current price levels. The Street-high price target of $275 suggests a notable upside potential of 41.7%.
