Just noticed APP stock closed at $483, up about 2% while the broader market only gained 0.54%. Interesting that it's outperforming today, especially after losing over 23% in the previous stretch. The company operates in the mobile app market and seems to be getting some attention from investors lately.
Earnings just dropped on February 11th and honestly the numbers are pretty solid. They're projecting $2.89 EPS, which would be 67% growth quarter-over-quarter. Revenue guidance came in at $1.6 billion, up about 17% from last year. For the full year, analysts are expecting $9.32 per share and $5.57 billion in revenue. That's more than doubling earnings year-over-year, which is pretty impressive for a company already established in the app market.
That said, the valuation looks stretched to me. Forward P/E sitting at 31.24 is way above the industry average of 16.55. PEG ratio is 1.56, barely different from the sector average of 1.55, so at least growth expectations are somewhat baked in. Zacks gave it a #2 Buy rating and the consensus EPS estimate moved up slightly, but I'd probably wait for a better entry point. The app market is definitely growing, but paying a 90% premium to the sector average feels risky right now.
