Coursera (COUR) Stock Forecast & Price Target
Coursera (COUR) Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
Coursera Inc. has shown strong revenue growth with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) exceeding 37% from 2017 through 2023, indicating a robust demand for its educational offerings. The company has made significant strides in improving its consumer segment by implementing optimized geographic pricing and enhancing payment methods, which has contributed to a renewed acceleration in consumer growth. Additionally, there is potential for substantial margin expansion, with forecasts suggesting free cash flow margins could surpass 25% at scale, supported by a favorable revenue mix and ongoing improvements in conversion and retention rates.
Bears say
Coursera's financial outlook is negatively impacted by a decline in net revenue retention (NRR) in the enterprise segment, which fell to 89%, indicating underlying growth challenges amid macroeconomic uncertainty. The company is only modestly profitable, with expectations of sustained profitability in the near term being low, especially with increasing competition and potential adverse impacts from regulatory changes in the online program management market. Additionally, Coursera's significant reliance on partnerships with universities and corporations to provide content presents further risk, as failure to attract or retain these partners could diminish its competitive value proposition.
