Celsius Holdings stock price rose for three consecutive days as Wall Street analysts maintained a bullish outlook ahead of its earnings.
CELH rose to $50, up by 140% from its lowest level in 2025. This article explores what to expect as it publishes its financial results.
Celsius Holdings stock is rising ahead of earnings
CELH stock price will be in the spotlight this week as its financial results, which will provide more color on its business as it integrates its recent acquisitions.
The most recent quarterly results showed that Celsius Holdings’ revenue jumped by 173% in the third quarter to over $725 million.
As a result, its nine-month revenue jumped by 75% to over $1.02 billion, helped by its Alani Nu and Rockstar Energy acquisitions.
It also attributed the surge to the strength of the core Celsius business, which continued to gain market share in the United States. Also, its international business has continued growing, albeit from a low base.
The management believes that the company has more growth trajectory in the coming years, helped by the popularity of its business and its partnership with PepsiCo, a top player in the beverage and snacks business.
This partnership continued last year as it combined its three businesses into one total energy portfolio.
It also boosted its market share to 20.8%, making it the third-biggest player in the energy drink business after Red Bull and Monster Energy.
Data compiled by Yahoo Finance shows that the upcoming financial results will show that Celsius Holdings’ revenue jumped by 92% in the fourth quarter to over $638 million. Such a move will bring its annual revenue to $2.4 billion.
Barring any more acquisitions, analysts expect that Celsius Holdings will make over $3.2 billion this year as its global expansion continues.
Celsius Holdings’s profits are also expected to continue doing well.
The average estimate is that its earnings-per-share (EPS) was up to 19 cents from 14 cents in the same period in 2024.
However, its margins will likely be lower because of its recent promotions and higher freight rates due to the ongoing integration of Alani Nu into the Pepsi system.
Analysts are bullish on the CELH stock
Wall Street analysts are largely bullish on the CELH stock price.
For example, Piper Sandler boosted the price target from $61 to $65, while JPMorgan hiked the estimate from $68 to $77.
UBS analysts hiked their target to $70, representing a substantial growth from the current level.
As a result, the consensus estimate is $66, up by 30% from the current level.
Still, the main concern is that the recent M&A activity may hurt the company in the long term as it is fueled by debt and dilution. It could also be a sign that the core Celsius brand is losing steam.
