On January 20, Benchmark analyst Mike Hickey lowered the firm’s price target on Gambling.com Group Limited (NASDAQ:GAMB) to $7 from $8 while maintaining a Buy rating, reflecting a more cautious stance on the company’s 2026 earnings trajectory rather than any deterioration in near-term fundamentals.
