Underperform
initiated
$150
Reason
BNP Paribas Exane initiated coverage of Boeing with an Underperform rating and $150 price target. The firm believes consensus estimates for Boeing as too high. CEO Kelly Ortberg has made progress turning around the company's operations, but this is largely priced into the stock with consensus forecasting a ramp to new all-time high production rates, the analyst tells investors in a research note. BNP finds it unclear if Boeing's commercial book-to-bill can hold up as traffic slows and tariff -driven deal orders are lapped.
Positive
downgrade
$270 -> $255
Reason
Susquehanna lowered the firm's price target on Boeing to $255 from $270 and keeps a Positive rating on the shares. The firm updatedits model to reflect certain estimate adjustments following the release of its October aircraft deliveries and orders data. Susquehanna said they continue to be encouraged by the progress on the production ramp at BCA, particularly on the MAX program.
upgrade
$217 -> $223
Reason
Freedom Capital upgraded Boeing to Buy from Hold with a price target of $223, up from $217. Boeing's Q3 marks a cautious recovery, with stronger operational performance and gradual regulatory confidence, the analyst tells investors in a research note. The Commercial Airplanes unit increased deliveries to 160 aircraft, and the 737 program gained approval to lift output to 42 units per month. Despite lingering quality concerns, production stability is improving under the FAA's careful oversight, the firm says.
