Goldman Sachs analyst Ben Miller initiates coverage on DraftKings Inc. (NASDAQ: DKNG) with a Buy rating and a price target of $60.00.

The analyst comments "We initiate coverage of DraftKings (DKNG) with a Buy rating and a 12-month price target of $60 (36% upside from current trading price). Our Buy rating reflects our framing of a more attractive 12m risk/reward as: 1) We expect DraftKings to compound revenue at 20%+ as it continues to benefit from healthy growth in existing states, as well as future state legalizations across OSB & iGaming; 2) Unit economics, including contribution margin and LTV/CAC dynamics, continue to improve at an increasingly better pace; 3) We see 2-3% upside to Street Revenue in 2024/2025 & 3-4% upside to Street Adj. EBITDA & 4) While the stock is up ~65% over the past 9 months, DKNG is trading at a growth adjusted revenue multiple of 0.15x (vs. its historical average of 0.19x and peers currently trading at 0.17x), which is down ~20% over the same time period."
