PTON Peloton Potential Buyout Interest from Amazon or NikeIf you haven`t bought the dip on PTON, before the rally: Now Peloton Interactive PTON remains a compelling bullish candidate in 2025, supported not only by strategic buyout interest from major players like Amazon and Nike but also by significant unusual options activity signaling strong investor conviction in a near-term upside move. These factors combined create a powerful catalyst for a potential stock rally. 1. Confirmed Buyout Interest from Amazon and Nike Since 2022, credible reports have indicated that Amazon and Nike are exploring acquisition opportunities for Peloton, recognizing its value as a leading connected fitness platform with over 2 million subscribers. Amazon’s interest fits its broader health and smart home ambitions, while Nike sees Peloton as a strategic extension of its digital fitness ecosystem. Such buyout interest implies a potential premium valuation, which could trigger a sharp upward re-rating of Peloton’s shares if a deal materializes or even if speculation intensifies. 2. Massive Unusual Call Option Activity for July 18, 2025 Expiry A mystery trader recently purchased over 80,000 call options on Peloton with a $7 strike price expiring July 18, 2025, representing a $3.1 million bet on a price rise within the next few months. On May 20, 2025, over 90,000 contracts of the $7 strike call expiring July 18, 2025 traded, equating to roughly 9 million underlying shares—well above Peloton’s average daily volume. This unusually high call volume signals strong bullish sentiment and possible insider or institutional anticipation of a positive event, such as a buyout announcement or operational turnaround. 3. Strategic Fit and Synergies for Acquirers Peloton’s subscription-based connected fitness platform offers Amazon and Nike a valuable recurring revenue stream and engaged user base. Amazon could integrate Peloton’s offerings into its ecosystem of devices, health services, and e-commerce, while Nike could leverage Peloton’s content and hardware to deepen its digital fitness presence. The potential for cross-selling, brand synergy, and data monetization enhances Peloton’s attractiveness as an acquisition target. 4. Attractive Valuation and Growth Potential Peloton’s market cap has contracted significantly, making it an affordable target for large corporations with strategic interests in health and fitness. Recent product launches, cost-cutting measures, and renewed marketing efforts aim to stabilize and grow Peloton’s subscriber base and revenue. The connected fitness market continues to expand, driven by consumer demand for at-home and hybrid workout solutions. 5. Technical and Sentiment Indicators The stock has shown signs of stabilizing after recent volatility, with support forming near $6–$6.50. The surge in call options activity, especially at strikes above current prices, suggests growing investor confidence in a near-term breakout. Historical patterns show Peloton’s stock reacts strongly to buyout rumors and unusual options volume, often resulting in rapid price appreciation.

Peloton Shares Spike 21% As Turnaround Plan Takes Hold Overview The Bike and Tread maker has been working to improve its balance sheet and looks to be more focused on profitability than growth. The connected fitness company posted quarterly results that came in well ahead of expectations and delivered a mixed outlook for the year ahead. Peloton (NASDAQ: NASDAQ:PTON ) has returned to sales growth for the first time in nine quarters. Peloton (NASDAQ: NASDAQ:PTON ) said on Thursday It is digging itself out of the red and making progress out a slight sales increase for the first time in nine quarters as it slashed its overall losses. The beleaguered connected fitness company, which two board members have run since former CEO Barry McCarthy resigned earlier this year, saw sales grow by 0.2% during its fiscal fourth quarter. While only a modest uptick, it’s the first time Peloton (NASDAQ: NASDAQ:PTON ) posted year-over-year revenue growth since its 2021 holiday quarter. Peloton (NASDAQ: NASDAQ:PTON ) likewise indicated it’s ready to focus on profitability over growth with significant cuts to its marketing and sales spending and meaningful increases to free cash flow and adjusted EBITDA. Those cuts helped Peloton (NASDAQ: NASDAQ:PTON ) narrow its quarterly losses to $30.5 million from $241.1 million in the year-ago period. Peloton (NASDAQ: NASDAQ:PTON ) shares rose more than 21% in Thursday's trading. based on a survey of analysts by LSEG, Here’s how the Bike and Tread maker performed compared with what Wall Street was anticipating: Loss per share: 8 cents vs. 17 cents expected Revenue: $644 million vs. $631 million expected For the three-month period that ended June 30, Peloton (NASDAQ: NASDAQ:PTON ) significantly narrowed its losses. The company posted a loss of $30.5 million, or 8 cents per share, compared with a loss of $241.8 million, or 68 cents per share, a year earlier. Sales rose to $643.6 million, up about 0.2% from $642.1 million a year earlier. That’s only a $1.5 million increase, but Peloton (NASDAQ: NASDAQ:PTON ) did it at a time when sales are typically a bit slower for the company, because the quarter bleeds into the summer when people are more focused on going out and traveling than working out. The last time Peloton (NASDAQ: NASDAQ:PTON ) delivered YoY sales growth was during its holiday season in 2021, which is typically the company’s strongest quarter so far. Secondary Market Gains During the quarter, sales for Peloton’s pricy connected fitness hardware fell about 4%, continuing a trend for the company. But subscription revenue rose by 2.3%, and the segment’s gross margin increased by 1 percentage point. Though hardware sales were down, Peloton (NASDAQ: NASDAQ:PTON ) is growing its subscription revenue through the secondary market where people can buy used stationary bikes for a fraction of the cost of a new one. During the quarter, subscription revenue from hardware purchased on the secondary market grew 16% year over year. While hardware sales have hurt Peloton’s overall performance, sales for its Tread are growing after it overcame a costly recall. During the quarter, sales from Peloton’s treadmill portfolio grew 42% YoY. Peloton (NASDAQ: NASDAQ:PTON ) is also seeing some positive omens in its Bike rental program, which allowed it to clear through a glut of inventory. During the quarter, average net monthly paid subscription churn for rentals was down 1.1 percentage points. Demand has been so steady, it no longer has the refurbished inventory levels necessary to supply that side of the program. The company ceased offering its original Bike rental program on Aug. 1 and since then, has seen demand grow for its Bike+ rental, refurbished original Bike sales and financed new Bike sales. “These alternative programs have stronger unit economics than original Bike rental, with more cash paid upfront and a stronger retention profile,” the company said in its shareholder letter. Ever since Peloton’s pandemic heyday came to an end, the company has struggled to generate free cash flow and ensure it has enough assets on its balance sheet to cover its many liabilities. Earlier this year, it announced a sprawling restructuring plan that included cutting 15% of the company’s global workforce to achieve $200 million in annualized cost savings by the end of fiscal 2025. Those efforts are starting to bear fruit. During the quarter, Peloton (NASDAQ: NASDAQ:PTON ) delivered adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow for the second consecutive quarter – a feat it had not pulled off since the height of the Covid-19 pandemic. It posted $70 million of adjusted EBITDA, far more than the $53 million that analysts had expected, according to StreetAccount. That metric was up $105 million compared with the year-ago period and $64 million quarter over quarter. The company also generated $26 million in free cash flow, compared with negative $74 million in the year-ago period and $8 million in the prior quarter. Improvements to Peloton’s balance sheet come after the company completed massive refinancing of its debt that staved off a looming liquidity crunch and pushed out its debt maturities by several years. Peloton (NASDAQ: NASDAQ:PTON ) noted that the search for its next CEO is “top of mind for all stakeholders.” “The process is well underway and we look forward to sharing more when we have an announcement,” it said. Profit over growth For the year ahead, Peloton (NASDAQ: NASDAQ:PTON ) is planning to invest in its hardware and software to deliver a better user experience, among other initiatives. However, its guidance assumes that investments in these new initiatives “will not deliver subscriber growth within the fiscal year,” indicating Peloton (NASDAQ: NASDAQ:PTON ) may finally be shifting its focus away from growth in favor of profitability and free cash flow generation. That’s evidenced by its reductions to sales and marketing spending — an expense that has long dragged down Peloton’s balance sheet and has been criticized as being too high for the company’s size. During the quarter, Peloton (NASDAQ: NASDAQ:PTON ) cut sales and marketing spending by $25.5 million, or 19% year over year. It said it expects to continue to make reductions to its marketing budget throughout fiscal 2025. For the current quarter, Peloton (NASDAQ: NASDAQ:PTON ) is projecting sales to be worse than Wall Street expected but is guiding to higher-than-forecast adjusted EBITDA. The company said it anticipates sales to be between $560 million and $580 million, compared with estimates of $609 million, according to LSEG. It’s expecting to post adjusted EBITDA of $50 million to $60 million, compared with estimates of $45 million, according to StreetAccount. Street Account analysts had expected the number of connected fitness subscribers to be 2.96 million during the current quarter, but Peloton projects a range of 2.88 million to 2.89 million instead. According to LSEG, for the full year Peloton ( NASDAQ:PTON ) expects sales to be between $2.4 billion and $2.5 billion, compared with estimates of $2.7 billion. Technical Outlook As of the time of writing, Peloton (NASDAQ: NASDAQ:PTON ) stock has experienced a significant increase of 24%. This rise has led to the stock being currently overbought, as indicated by its Relative Strength Index (RSI), which stands at 71. The daily price chart shows a gap up pattern, which is a strong indicator of a potential bullish reversal in the stock's performance. Furthermore, the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) is recorded at 0.097, which points to a slight bullish momentum in the market. This suggests that there is some upward pressure on the stock, reflecting a positive sentiment among investors. In addition to these indicators, it is noteworthy that Peloton's stock is trading above both the 50-day and 100-day moving averages, reinforcing the notion that the stock is currently in a strong upward trend. This combination of factors highlights the current bullish outlook for Peloton in the market.

Peloton: Pedalling all the way down!!Peloton Short Term - We look to Sell at 14.90 (stop at 21.60) The primary trend remains bearish. The continuation lower in prices through support has been impressive with strong momentum and shows no signs of slowing. We can see no technical reason for a change of trend. Further downside is expected although we prefer to set shorts at our bespoke resistance levels at 15.00 resulting in improved risk/return. Worse than expected earnings will add to bearish confluence. Our profit targets will be 0.00.

As requested, we'll study PTON today!As a request from my buddy @ke-3a, I’ll analyze PTON today! In the 30min chart it did break the 104.50, a pivot point, and reversed the sentiment nicely. Now, it may seem PTON just hit its target at 110.56, and is starting to look overbought again, as the RSI is quite high too. But this is not true in the 4h chart. The chart is pointing up, and the momentum seems good. We have a line connecting the bottoms in red, the 20ma is a support too, and the most interesting part: PTON hit the $ 102.56 and it is going up again. The 102.56 was a resistance a few days ago. The problem is the RSI that did an advanced breakdown. So, if I had PTON, how would I proceed? A correction in the 30min is expected, maybe to the 107 again, but it must not break the 102. If this happens, we’ll see a head and shoulders + advanced breakdown, and I would just get out of it. But the 113.91 is another pivot point, and if PTON breaks it, the 125 is our next stop. I would hold it and look at these points. I hope it helps!

PTON on the way to $200Great chat to take a look at today "PTON" -We can see the ascending trendline and the Support resistance zone as the two key elements to understand this chart The Ascending trendline represents the asset's long-term bullish trend, and we can see how the price is accelerating and taking distance from it. -The Support Resistance zone was the previous level in which a huge corrective structure was formed (ABC pattern) -After the breakout of it and a bullish impulse, we saw a corrective structure (smaller ABC pattern) finding support on the previous zone -Now we had a breakout of the small structure, and we expect a continuation of the bullish movement towards 184.86 (First target in which we will move our stop loss to break-even) and then to the final target 205.5, where we will close our long setup -The setup we developed was Entry above "B" and Stop below "C" (of the small corrective structure) / Break-Even and Take profit were explained on the previous items

Peloton officially VOIDED its bullish pattern.Update from yesterday's PTON chart analysis: Peloton has officially broken its upward climb with a fall under the 125-126 support level. Although I like this as a long term investment, the short term is looking like a sideways/downward trend. If you plan to play calls, I would look for end of year expirations. Peloton can benefit from the winter months if COVID cases surge, gyms close but for now I think the ceiling is 136-137.

Peloton continuation pattern.Peloton showing testing of its support levels. NASDAQ:PTON In danger to falling under its bull upward pattern. Volumes have been decreasing steadily so i would like to see this keep going but i feel like it has reached its top price of 139-139.90. Support at 126.50-127 and if it breaks lower, it could test 125-123-120. For short term traders, this would not be good but for the long term investors, a great entry would be any price under $120 imo. Curious to see how this plays out. Impeccable run by $PTON thus far!!

Peloton (PTON): The Apple and Netflix of the Fitness IndustryIf you like this analysis, please make sure to like the post, and follow for more quality content! I would also appreciate it if you could leave a comment below with some original insight. What is Peloton Interactive (PTON)? - Peloton is a home fitness company that offers fitness products such as an indoor cycle, and a treadmill, as well as live workout content - Peloton is similar to Apple (AAPL) in that it promotes the establishment of a hardware-based ecosystem - It’s also similar to Netflix (NFLX) in that it offers various fitness content in subscription form Financials - They initially anticipated $1.72 billion in revenue for 2020, which has been modified to $1.74 billion due to their explosive growth - This means that PTON demonstrates a 89% year-over-year growth in revenue - Out of their total revenue, 79% consists of sales of connected fitness products, and 20% from their subscription service - PTON is one of the few stocks that has benefited from the pandemic. - With an increasing number of people staying indoors, wanting to exercise, demand for Peloton’s products and services skyrocketed. - Due to the Coronavirus (COVID-19), they have managed to be profitable for the fourth quarter with an Earnings per Share (EPS) at 27 cents. - While they are not extremely profitable yet, as PTON is a growth stock, the fact that they have $500 million in cash proves that they will be financially stable for the short term. Business Analysis - The fitness machines sold by Peloton are not normal indoor cycles and treadmills with screens attached - These fitness machines, which cost $2,245 and $4,295, apply cutting-edge technology that allow users to meticulously control the angle and resistance. - Moreover, these products provide accurate data on the user’s athletic performance. - The hardware provided by Peloton Interactive are optimized for the contents they provide. - PTON’s instructors are 30 of the most famous fitness influencers on social media. - As such, they could expand their streams of revenue to paid advertisements, and ecommerce opportunities, diversifying the business. - They offer two subscription plans: - A ‘Connected Fitness’ plan based on the hardware they offer - And a digital membership that is offered separately - Connected Fitness allows users to participate in live cycling sessions, and receive immediate feedback from the instructor - The number of users subscribing to Connected Fitness is skyrocketing, with a 94% increase in users compared to that of the last quarter - The number of subscribers for Connected Fitness surpassed 1 million in 2020 May - The digital membership subscription does not require a Peloton hardware, and offers various types of content besides running and cycling, such as yoga, meditation, and boot camps. - Their customer churn rate remains extremely low at 0.65% every quarter, while the number of users continue to grow every quarter Technical Analysis - We can see that prices have been in a phase of accumulation for a long time since later 2019 - As prices traded within a descending parallel channel, we saw a sharp breakdown caused by the market drop, which was triggered by the Corona Virus (COVID-19) - Unlike other companies that were severely affected by the virus, the pandemic was an opportunity for Peloton to grow. - As a result, we saw prices break through the $40 resistance zone, and rally in a parabolic trend - Along the way, it has undergone a phase of re-accumulation, before reaching its all-time high at $91.17 - Currently, we have seen prices cool off, bouncing at $79.34 where the 0.236 Fibonacci support and parallel channel trend line support converge - The 20 Simple Moving Average (SMA) is also a good indicator of PTON's bullish trend, as well as strong support. - Based on fundamentals, unless we see a corrective confirmation below $80, we could anticipate new all-time highs for PTON. Conclusion Peloton is on its way to completing a hierarchical process of 'hardware-software-content-community' funneling users into their ecosystem. This ecosystem that Peloton is designing has been attempted by many, but successfully done by only a few. With the development of each elements and growth as a whole, we could expect a huge augmentation in the barrier to entry. One thing to note about growth stocks such as PTON is that the essence of the business is rooted on tech. To say Peloton Interactive (PTON) is another fitness-related company like Fitbit (FIT) is to compare Amazon (AMZN) to bookstores and Tesla Motors (TSLA) to automotive companies.
