Yelp shares are flat year-to-date and are down 10% since reporting Q1 results due to a "less-positive and even negative take" by some investors on the company's decision to transition from annual contracts to non-term contracts for new advertisers, Citi analyst Mark May tells investors in a research note.

May reiterates a Buy rating on Yelp following the recent share weakness.
