Jefferies upgraded Green Dot (NYSE: GDOT) from Hold to Buy in assumed coverage and set a price target of $37 (up from $36).
The firm comments, "We have become more positive on GDOT (upgrading rating/price target to Buy/$37 from Hold/$36, with unchanged estimates) as we believe: 1) fears that GDOT's extensive distribution will fail to protect the company from new market entrants are overblown, 2) too much regulatory risk is discounted in shares, and 3) excessive post-IPO expectations seem to have been reset, with shares now potentially oversold."
