Brunswick Corp (BC) is not a strong buy at the moment for a beginner investor with a long-term strategy. While the company has shown some positive indicators, such as increased revenue and dividend growth, the recent financial performance, insider selling trends, and mixed analyst ratings suggest that waiting for a better entry point might be more prudent.
The technical indicators are mixed. While the moving averages are bullish (SMA_5 > SMA_20 > SMA_200), the MACD is negatively expanding, and the RSI is neutral at 50.679. The stock is trading near its pivot level of 84.752, with resistance at 88.706 and support at 80.798. This suggests limited upward momentum in the short term.
Dividend growth: The company has increased its dividend for the 14th consecutive year.
Recognition: Named one of America's Greatest Workplaces for Women
Revenue growth: Q4 revenue increased by 15.49% YoY.
Insider selling: Insider selling has surged by 24983.97% over the last month.
Declining net income and EPS: Q4 net income dropped by -122.67% YoY, and EPS fell by -122.58% YoY.
Mixed analyst ratings: Analysts have raised price targets but remain cautious, with several maintaining Neutral ratings.
In Q4 2025, revenue increased by 15.49% YoY to $1.33 billion, but net income dropped significantly by -122.67% YoY to $18.7 million. EPS also fell by -122.58% YoY to 0.28. Gross margin improved to 23.08%, up 5.29% YoY.
Analyst ratings are mixed. While several analysts raised price targets and maintain Buy ratings, others remain Neutral, citing concerns over tariff impacts, elevated expectations, and Q1 guidance shortfalls. Price targets range from $76 to $115, with a median target around $90.
