Etsy Equity Research Summary

• Rating and Price Target: Hold rating with a price target of $60, down from $45. This reflects slower GMS growth but acknowledges Etsy's historical performance. The target implies an EV/EBITDA multiple of 11x for 2026.

• App Strategy and User Growth: Etsy has focused on enhancing its mobile app to drive adoption, featuring new tabs and paid download campaigns. App downloads accelerated in 2025 (e.g., +38% YoY in April), supporting MAU growth (+13% in May). App users exhibit higher lifetime value (LTV) by at least 40%, and conversion rates are superior to desktop/web channels, potentially improving GMS. However, caution remains due to persistent churn.

• GMS and Financials: Etsy has faced 3 years of declining Gross Merchandise Sales (GMS), leading to a cautious stance. Financial projections show modest revenue growth but EBITDA improvement through marketing efficiency. DCF model supports the PT, but estimates are unchanged amid uncertainty.

• Risks and Outlook: Downside risks include consumer spending downturn and EBITDA margin pressure from investments. Upside catalysts include stronger app adoption, improved buyer spend, and take rate increases. Overall, the Hold rating awaits clearer evidence of sustained growth.
