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，綜合報道，$Upwork (UPWK.US)$近期主要分析師觀點如下：
在最近舉行的科技和人工智能會議上，公司管理層對其2025年毛服務成交量的走勢表現出謹慎態度。儘管如此，在其財務策略方面正在取得實質性進展，特別是通過旨在改善利潤率的舉措，預計在2025年實現超過20%的EBITDA增長，儘管毛服務成交量和營業收入略有下降。持續的財務表現可能會隨着時間的推移成爲多個擴張的催化劑，儘管目前的風險/收益情景被視爲平衡。
隨着我們接近2025年，幾乎可以肯定政府政策將顯著影響市場。分析師認爲，即將上任的政府政策可能會惠及消費者。upwork目前的估值低於電子商務板塊的中位數，且相較於人才平台市場的同行，交易價格處於折扣狀態。
