"CARG is already showing strong execution in the digital dealer to dealer used vehicle wholesale market, and we now think they can penetrate the offline peer to peer used vehicle market as well, while laying the groundwork to turn their vehicle marketplace into an asset light DTC used vehicle platform." Needham has a Buy rating on CARG and price target of $46, which works out to an EV/EBITDA multiple of 22X
