Shares of Near Intelligence are soaring after a Benchmark analyst initiated coverage of the company and set a $3 price target on its stock.

The stock was up 44% at $1.70 at noon on Friday. Shares are down significantly from a high of $18.65 hit in March after Near Intelligence went public by combining with a special purpose acquisition company.

Benchmark analyst Mark Zgutowicz gave Near Intelligence a "speculative buy" rating, saying in a research note that the company is fulfilling enterprise demand for geolocation data on an industry-leading global scale, with strong competitive advantages for capturing the $23 billion total addressable market.

The data-intelligence firm's shares are currently undervalued given the relative scarcity value for its data insights within international markets, which will allow for a greater share of global deals moving forward, Zgutowicz said.

Deterioration in the company's revenue retention will likely stabilize soon, and its near-to-medium term liquidity concern is overstated, the analyst said.
