UBS analyst Joshua Chan initiates coverage on $Upwork (UPWK.US)$ with a hold rating, and sets the target price at $18.
According to TipRanks data, the analyst has a success rate of 76.1% and a total average return of 13.8% over the past year.
Furthermore, according to the comprehensive report, the opinions of $Upwork (UPWK.US)$'s main analysts recently are as follows:
Following a recent hosting at a technology and artificial intelligence conference, the company's management displayed a cautious stance on the trajectory of its gross services volume extending into 2025. Nevertheless, substantive progress is being made in its financial strategy, notably through initiatives aimed at improving margins that are projected to drive over 20% EBITDA growth in 2025, despite a slight dip in GSV and revenue. The sustained financial performance could potentially serve as a catalyst for multiple expansion over time, although the risk/reward scenario is currently viewed as balanced.
As we approach 2025, it is considered almost certain that government policy will significantly influence the market. Analysts believe that impending policies from the incoming administration will likely benefit consumers. Upwork is currently valued at a multiple lower than the median for the e-commerce sector, and is trading at a discount compared to a peer in the talent platform market.

此外，综合报道，$Upwork (UPWK.US)$近期主要分析师观点如下：
在最近举办的科技和人工智能会议上，公司管理层对其整体服务成交量在2025年延续的走势采取了谨慎态度。然而，在其财务策略方面正在取得实质性进展，特别是通过旨在改善利润率的举措，预计将在2025年推动超过20%的EBITDA增长，尽管GSV和营业收入略有下降。持续的财务表现可能会随着时间的推移作为多重扩张的催化剂，尽管当前的风险/收益情景被视为平衡。
随着我们接近2025年，几乎可以肯定政府政策将显著影响市场。分析师认为，即将到来的新一届政府的政策很可能对消费者有利。upwork目前的估值低于电子商务板块的中位数，且相对于人才平台市场的同行而言，其交易处于折扣状态。
