What the analyst said

Baird analyst Ben Kallo reiterated an Outperform rating and $23 price target on Rivian Automotive Inc (NASDAQ: RIVN).

“Positive outlook unchanged following showroom visit and IR catch-up. We hosted investors for a visit to one of RIVN’s Bay Area showrooms and a meeting with Chip Newcom, VP of IR.

The R2 was at the center of our meeting (literally) and early indications from customers, investors, and media outlets have been positive.

Key topics from our meeting included R2 demand, autonomous development milestones, and RIVN’s core partnerships. Our estimates, price target, and positive outlook are unchanged following the visit.”
