Bark | BARK | Long at $0.84BARK, Inc. NYSE:BARK is a dog-focused company offering subscription-based products like BarkBox and Super Chewer, delivering monthly toys, treats, and pet supplies. It operates in Direct-to-Consumer and Commerce segments, selling through its website, retail partners, and e-commerce platforms. While not overly bullish here, especially given the economic / recession-fear headwinds, I think this is one of those stocks that may have a future "pop" as interest rates are lowered, or news emerges of the company expanding to new retail partners. A few insiders have recently purchased shares (~$75k under $1.00) and others have been awarded options. The book value currently rests near $0.64. It may dip between that price at $0.50 in the near-term. However, that's just been the trajectory of SO many of these SPAC stocks... dip then pop or bust.
Fundamentally, nothing to uproar over and this is a risky investment (Nasdaq delisting may occur). The positive is the debt-to-equity in 0.9x, which is pretty good for a small company. But 2026 is expected to be its worst earnings year. The future may look bright in 2027 and beyond, but can the company last? Time will tell.
Thus, for a swing trade, NYSE:BARK is in a personal buy zone at $0.84 with a risk of further near-term decline between $0.50 and $0.64.
Targets into 2027
$0.95 (+13.1%)
$1.25 (+48.8%)
