On October 31, 2025,
In recent weeks, several prominent analysts have raised their outlook on
Currently, the consensus analyst price target is $303.27, implying a possible 19.12% upside from current prices. This positive outlook is supported by DoorDash’s robust 50.04% gross margin and annual revenue of $11.895 billion, reflecting strong business fundamentals.
However, despite this wave of analyst upgrades, DoorDash is contending with a number of legal and operational hurdles. Short-seller Culper Research has recently accused the company of informally onboarding workers using Individual Taxpayer Identification Numbers (ITINs), which could draw regulatory attention. Additionally, Dalitso LLC, a cannabis company based in Virginia, has filed a lawsuit alleging DoorDash facilitated the delivery of illegal THC products. DoorDash has denied these claims, labeling them as baseless, and has not made any public changes to its business strategy or guidance in response.
Amid these obstacles, DoorDash has reaffirmed its dedication to social responsibility. On October 31, the company launched Project DASH, a major initiative to provide 1 million complimentary meals and eliminate delivery fees for 300,000 grocery orders placed by SNAP beneficiaries. This program, which expands collaborations with Kroger and Uber Eats, is designed to enhance DoorDash’s reputation and broaden its reach in grocery delivery. The company also unveiled partnerships with food banks and nonprofit organizations to deliver meals to seniors and at-risk groups nationwide.
These corporate social responsibility initiatives seem to have strengthened investor confidence. The stock rose 4.8% after the short-seller allegations, demonstrating some market resilience. The recent rally in DASH has also coincided with an expansion of partnerships with leading retailers, including a new collaboration with Kroger to integrate restaurant delivery into grocery apps.
