12:00 PM EST, 11/06/2025 (MT Newswires) -- CFRA, an independent research provider, has provided MT Newswires with the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:

Despite a strong Q3, we think shares of HOOD are trading down today on higher expected full-year 2025 expenses. In our view, this spending represents a strategic investment to capitalize on hyper-growth areas like Prediction Markets (October volume alone surpassed the entire Q3). We think this is a move to build a dominant position, not a sign of poor cost control. We expect HOOD to continue delivering profitable growth with expanding margins. We hold our target at $160, 63.2x our 2027 EPS view vs. HOOD's three-year historical forward P/E average of 52.3x. We increase our 2025 EPS by $0.16 to $1.95, keep 2026's at $2.24, and 2027's at $2.53. Our revenue and adjusted EBITDA margin projections are $4.54B (+54%) and 55% in 2025, $5.55B (+22%) and 58% in 2026, and $6.32B (+14%) and 59% in 2027, respectively. Robinhood Ventures represents a significant opportunity to democratize access to high-growth private companies for non-accredited investors, with the first fund's public offering expected in the coming months.
