Stifel Maintains $47 PT, Buy Rating on Pinterest (PINS), Cites Platform Improvement Ahead of Q3 Earnings

Pinterest Inc. (NYSE:PINS) is one of the stocks that should double in 3 years. On October 24, Stifel analyst Mark Kelley kept a Buy rating and $47 price target on Pinterest. The sentiment came as part of a broader research note previewing Q3 2025 results in Digital Ads. Based on the firm’s recent advertising checks, Q3 growth generally improved over Q2, with September being the strongest month of the quarter.

However, Kelley cautions that Q4 guidance across the sector likely won’t be exciting. This is due to tough year-over-year comparisons, ongoing tariff issues, and general macroeconomic uncertainty, even though the overall digital advertising environment remains supportive.

Separately, Pinterest is noted as a strong exception. The platform continues to improve for both users and advertisers, making it a more attractive option for a growing number of advertisers, especially heading into the crucial holiday quarter.

Pinterest Inc. (NYSE:PINS) operates as a visual search and discovery platform in the US, Canada, Europe, and internationally.
