Analysts expect 3 fintech stocks to jump at least 40% over the next year

Analysts expect a trio of financial technology stocks to gain at least 40% over the next year and another 10 fintech stocks to gain at least 20%.

Currently, analysts expect shares of Mitek Systems Inc., a banking technology company, to grow 59.1% over the next year, the highest implied upside of all fintech stocks included in this analysis. Mitek's shares have gained 28.3% over the past year but have declined 13.8% in 2018 through March 6.

Everi Holdings Inc. and Evolent Health had the second- and third-highest implied upside at 52.7% and 40.2%, respectively. Everi's stock has more than doubled over the last year, while Evolent's stock has lost almost 20% of its value.

In contrast, analysts think 14 fintech stocks are trading above one-year price targets. FactSet Research Systems Inc. is trading 11.5% above its one-year price target, the most of any company studied.

Paycom Software Inc., a payroll and human resources technology company, and Square Inc., a payment processing company, had the second- and third-largest implied downside at 8.3% and 7.0%, respectively.

In this analysis, S&P Global Market Intelligence examined major exchange-traded financial technology stocks in relation to mean analyst price targets as of March 6. Only stocks covered by at least three analysts and trading above $5 per share as of March 6 were included in this analysis.
