Shopify Soars 4.66% on Strong Earnings, AI Push
On April 23, 2025, Shopify's stock rose by 4.66% in pre-market trading, reflecting positive market sentiment towards the company's recent performance and future prospects.
Goldman Sachs recently maintained its buy rating for Shopify, setting a new target price of $130.00. This endorsement comes as Shopify continues to demonstrate strong financial performance, with its 2024 annual report showing revenue of $88.80 billion, a 25.78% year-over-year increase, and net income of $20.19 billion, with earnings per share at $1.57.
