Direct Digital Holdings Inc (NASDAQ:DRCT) is trading higher Wednesday after Benchmark analyst Daniel Kurnos initiated coverage on the stock with a Buy rating and announced a $8 price target.
Given the company's end-to-end programmatic platform approach, Kurnos thinks Direct Digital separates itself from the competition in the ad-tech marketplace.
The Benchmark analyst also thinks Direct Digital has a leg up on the competition as a result of its focus on small and medium-sized businesses, which are often overlooked in the space, according to Kurnos.
Direct Digital is an end-to-end, full-service programmatic advertising platform primarily focused on providing advertising technology and data-driven campaign optimization.
