Oppenheimer's analyst, Martin Yang, has adjusted the price target for Turtle Beach (TBCH, Financial) to $17.50, down from the previous $20, though he maintains an Outperform rating for the stock. This decision follows a robust first quarter where the company reported a 14% rise in revenue compared to the same period last year and an increase in gross margins by nearly 500 basis points.

In response to the "Liberation Day" tariff announcement affecting Chinese imports, Turtle Beach promptly moved its manufacturing operations for U.S. products to Vietnam. Additionally, the company has revised its annual guidance downwards to consider potential macroeconomic challenges and the rescheduling of the GTA 6 release from fall 2025 to May 2026.
