Citi Lifts PT on Celsius Holdings (CELH) Stock

Celsius Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ:CELH) is one of the Unstoppable Stocks to Buy and Hold for the Next 5 Years. On September 26, Citi lifted the price target on the company’s stock to $73 from $60, keeping a “Buy” rating after Celsius Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ:CELH) stated that Alani Nu will move to PepsiCo’s distribution system in the U.S. and Canada. Also, Pepsi raised its stake in Celsius to ~11%. Notably, the firm views the agreement as favourable for the company as it scales the Alani Nu brand.

With the momentum building across the energy category, Celsius Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ:CELH)’s brands continue to lead, fueling household penetration, expanding shelf space, and outperforming expectations. For the 3 months ended June 30, 2025, Celsius Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ:CELH)’s revenue came in at ~$739.3 million as compared to $402.0 million for the prior-year period, demonstrating 84% growth. This rise stemmed mainly from $301.2 million of revenue from the Alani Nu® brand, which it acquired on April 1, 2025.

Alani Nu saw record sales thanks to the strong limited-time-offer (LTO) innovation performance and organic growth throughout the brand’s core flavors. Carillon Tower Advisers, an investment management company, released its Q1 2025 investor letter. Here is what the fund said:

“Celsius Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ:CELH) develops, markets, sells, and distributes functional fitness and lifestyle beverages. The stock performed well during the period, driven by Celsius’ now-completed acquisition of Alani Nu, a fast-growing energy drink brand that is expected to boost the combined companies’ market share. Additionally, the company’s core business improved sequentially through March and started the second quarter poised to return to positive growth.”
