According to the Bloomberg service, Uber just received 0 sell ratings, 21 buy ratings, and 5 holds. The average 12 month price target from those analyst was $53.70. Some at Lead Edge Capital think Uber stock is dramatically undervalued.

The company has 93 million monthly active customers of its app for both food delivery and transportation needs, the ride-hailing company over the next five years can attain 25% revenue growth, according to Raymond James.
