2025-01-31
Reason
Stifel lowered the firm's price target on A.O. Smith to $84 from $90 and keeps a Buy rating on the shares. Q4 results were "underwhelming," with revenue and EPS below consensus and guidance, while guidance was also below expectations, notes the analyst. However, while demand is soft, the valuation is at "historically low levels" and while "it doesn't feel great," the firm believes "this is a buying opportunity," the analyst added.

2025-01-31
Reason
UBS analyst Damian Karas lowered the firm's price target on A.O. Smith to $74 from $80 and keeps a Neutral rating on the shares. Operating results were weak in both segments of the business, and 2025 guidance is calling for a second consecutive year of roughly flat EPS, the analyst tells investors in a research note. The valuation multiple should have limited downside and a low bar has already been set for this year, which should ease concerns of downward guidance revisions, but the question of whether rising competition is eating away at the company's market position requires further clarity, UBS says.

Reason
Citi lowered the firm's price target on A.O. Smith to $73 from $78 and keeps a Neutral rating on the shares. The Q4 earnings for industrial conglomerates and electrical equipment names should be largely in-line with expectations and reflective of "still mixed" underlying demand trends among industrial end markets with currency headwinds contributing to some earnings pressure that likely limits potential upside, the analyst tells investors in a research note. The firm says that with investors focused on 2025, it sees some "ongoing bifurcation" with respect to growth expectations as likely to continue into the new year. Citi's top picks into Q4 include Flowserve (FLS), Vertiv (VRT), Dover (DOV), and Honeywell (HON).

Reason
Stifel analyst Nathan Jones lowered the firm's price target on A.O. Smith to $90 from $91 and keeps a Buy rating on the shares. Global industrial stocks having materially outperformed the growth in earnings with 2024 EPS growth of 10% for the group, notes the analyst, who has "concerns in several areas," but is "relatively bullish that growth will be similar in 2025." However, the firm thinks stocks in the group "may have overshot the mark in the short term," the analyst added.

Reason
Citi lowered the firm's price target on A.O. Smith to $78 from $85 and keeps a Neutral rating on the shares. With an upcoming change in U.S. administration, Citi remains "selectively bullish" on multi-industry companies as divergent market trends among industrial verticals could continue for the time being, the analyst tells investors in a research note. The firm says exposure to secular growth themes could remain at a premium, and it also favors selective exposure to emerging tailwinds such as "Trump beneficiaries," value, and tactical short-cycle exposure.

2024-10-23
Reason
UBS analyst Damian Karas upgraded A.O. Smith to Neutral from Sell with a price target of $80, up from $75. With the stock down 27% year-to-date, the firm sees a more balanced risk/reward, with the recent guidance cut "having adequately lowered investor expectations for China." The shares are assigning little value to the rest-of-world business, where UBS is now incrementally positive on China government stimulus, notwithstanding a still challenging consumer and housing market backdrop, the analyst tells investors in a research note.

$82 → $81
2024-10-23
Reason
Baird lowered the firm's price target on A.O. Smith to $81 from $82 and keeps a Neutral rating on the shares. The firm said 2025 consensus estimate risk remains despite recent reset and 2025 organic earnings growth is likely muted as they see continued sluggish NA WH industry volume growth, persistent China headwinds, and limited near-term pricing gains.
