  • Telsey Advisory Group analyst Dana Telsey reiterated a Market Perform rating for Peloton Interactive Inc PTON, citing the lack of visibility into demand levels, profitability, and cash flow.

  • The analyst said the company's decision to shut down internal manufacturing is not surprising given ongoing changes in the business model to reduce fixed costs, transition to a more variable cost structure, and reduce the cash burn.
  • The analyst noted that PTON's new CEO, Barry McCarthy, expressed his view of focusing on content and subscriptions.
  • The change should provide cost savings in FY24, in addition to the $800 million in cost savings previously identified.
  • However, there is a risk in relying on a single supplier for the welding and assembly of most of its products, although the analyst notes that Peloton has dual sources for some components.
  • Price Action: PTON shares are trading lower by 3.73% at $8.90 on the last check Wednesday.
