J.P. Morgan analyst Ken Goldman cut the price forecast for Freshpet, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FRPT#NASDAQ">FRPT</a>) from $154&nbsp;to&nbsp;$102 while maintaining <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/frpt/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">a Neutral rating</a>.
The analyst says that key concerns for the company include changing consumption trends (particularly among lower- and middle-income consumers and in terms of household penetration) and uncertainity about accuracy of consensus estimates for first-quarter FY25 and beyond.
Meanwhile, Goldman cites the company&#8217;s strong revenue growth, which is among the best in U.S. consumer staples and substantial reasons to consider FRPT will continue to grow over the long term as tailwinds.
The analyst revised revenue growth estimates from 22.9% to 18.9% (vs. Street estimates of 20.1%) for the first quarter of FY25, from 24.1% to 21.0% (Street 22.7%) for FY25, and from 23.4% to 18.3% (Street 22.8%) for FY26.
Also, the analyst updates EBITDA estimates from $40 million to $38 million (Street $40 million) for first quarter of FY25 and from $211 million to $210 million (Street $213 million) for 2025.
The analyst now sees an EBITDA of $267 million (vs. $277 million prior and a consensus of $286 million).
Goldman introduced FY27 estimates of revenue growth of 16.2% vs. consensus of 21.7% and EBITDA of $335 million (Street $384 million).

Smart Money Is Betting Big In FRPT Options

Freshpet's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FRPT#NYSE">FRPT</a>) short percent of float has fallen 7.86% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 4.11 million shares sold short, which is 9.96% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 8.85 days to cover their short positions on average.
<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Freshpet has declined since its last report. This does not mean that the stock is going to rise in the near-term but traders should be aware that less shares are being shorted.
<h3>Comparing Freshpet's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
According to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/">Benzinga Pro</a>, Freshpet's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 5.72%, which means the company has more short interest than most of its peers.
Did you know that increasing short interest can actually be bullish for a stock? <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-make-money-on-a-short-squeeze?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">This post by Benzinga Money explains how you can profit from it.</a>

More Millennials Are Opting For Pets Over Children As Pet Industry Continues To Grow

투자자 라이언 코헨(Ryan Cohen)은 애완동물 용품 및 애완동물 건강 제품의 성장 추세에 맞춰 2011년에 츄이(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CHWY#NYSE">CHWY</a>)를 설립했다. 새로운 데이터에 따르면 코헨은 애완동물 용품 및 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/pet-insurance-stocks" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-google-interstitial="false">애완동물 보험</a>에 대한 지출이 크게 증가하는 등 이러한 추세에 초기에 대처했을 수 있었다. 일부는 벌써 그를 전설적인 투자자(GOAT, greatest of all time)들 중 한 명으로 보고 있다.
어떤 일이 (What Happened): 2011년부터 2018년까지 츄이의 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/07/33387242/ryan-cohen-mourns-loss-of-his-beloved-poodle-who-inspired-pet-supplies-store-chewy" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-google-interstitial="false">CEO</a>로 재직한 코헨은 온라인으로 소비자들에게 제공되는 다양한 애완동물 제품과 강력한 고객 서비스 제공에 중점을 두었다.
코헨은 2017년 당시 최대 규모의 전자상거래 인수로 츄이를 펫스마트(PetSmart)에 33억 5천만 달러에 매각했다.
최근 시밀러웹(Similarweb)의 <a href="https://www.similarweb.com/blog/insights/ecommerce-news/pet-health-supplies-trending/">보고서</a>에 따르면 애완동물 용품 카테고리가 지난 12개월 동안 22% 성장한 것으로 나타났기 때문에 이 투자자는 애완동물 부문의 추세를 일찍 알아차렸을 수 있었다.
이러한 추세를 주도하는 데 도움이 되는 것은 대부분의 소비자들이 애완동물을 가족처럼 대하기 때문에 애완동물 건강 제품이다. 이는 그들이 애완동물을 위해 필요한 약이나 음식 옵션에 기꺼이 돈을 지출할 의향이 있음을 의미한다.
시밀러웹은 이러한 추세가 고급 애완동물 스파, 애완동물 전용 호텔, 고급 애완동물 식품 및 건강 보조식품과 같은 프리미엄 카테고리로까지 확산되었다고 말했다.
이 보고서에 따르면 애완동물과 관련하여 개가 선두를 달리고 있으며, 개 카테고리가 전년 대비 24.7% 증가했다. 이 보고서의 애완동물 카테고리에 있는 상위 키워드 중 다수는 개와 관련된 것이다.
이 보고서에 따르면 고양이는 카테고리 관련 매출이 전년 대비 23% 증가하여 크게 뒤처지지 않았다.

왜 중요한가 (Why It&#8217;s Important): 코헨은 애완동물 부문의 현재 추세로부터 이익을 얻지 못할 수도 있지만, 그는 시대를 앞서갔고 업계의 혁명적인 기업가였을 가능성이 높다. 그는 특정 제품에 초점을 맞추고 애완동물 소유자들이 애완동물 사료, 용품, 건강 제품을 집까지 배송받을 수 있도록 함으로써 해당 부문의 성장을 위한 기반을 마련했다.
애완동물 부문 성장으로 이익을 얻을 수 있는 투자자 중 한 명은 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/39601962/whats-going-on-with-chewy-stock-today" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-google-interstitial="false">츄이의 투자자</a>인 로어링 키티(Roaring Kitty)의 별명으로 잘 알려진 키스 길(Keith Gill)이다. 이 유명한 밈 주식 투자자인 그는 코헨이 CEO로 있는 비디오 게임 소매업체 게임스탑(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GME#NYSE">GME</a>)의 과거 투자자로서 코헨을 굳게 믿었다.
애완동물 부문이 성장하면서 츄이가 승자로 돋보일 수 있지만, 전자상거래, 애완동물 보험 등과 같은 분야를 포괄하여 향후 몇 년 동안 이익을 얻을 수 있는 다른 애완동물 관련 주식들도 있다.
