Citizens reiterates OptimizeRx stock rating citing digital spend expansion
Citizens maintained a Market Outperform rating and raised its price target on OptimizeRx (OPRX) to $11, citing digital spend expansion. The firm expects a 12% revenue decline in 2026 due to managed services and macro factors. OPRX reported Q2 2026 adjusted earnings of $0.16 per share, beating estimates, but revenue declined 15% year-over-year. The company has $24.1M in cash and $19.0M in debt, with a strong current ratio of 5.58.
