Needham analyst Kyle Peterson initiates coverage on Nu Holdings (Nubank) (NYSE: NU) with a Buy rating and a price target of $17.00.

The analyst comments: “We are initiating coverage of Nu Holdings (NU) with a BUY rating and a $17 price target. NU operates as a neobank and digital lending platform with a heavy focus in Brazil. Importantly, we believe that NU is the largest global neobank with over 135 million customers, and has a dominant foothold in Brazil (60% of the adult population uses NU). We believe this gives NU a scaled and profitable customer base that can fuel growth in other LatAm markets (Mexico, Colombia), make strategic investments such as the investment in Tyme Bank (a large South Africa/Philippines neobank), and fund organic expansion into the US, which we expect will start operations within the next year. Our $17 price target is based on an FY27 P/E multiple of 17x.”
