$39 → $41
2025-03-10
Reason

Strong Buy
Initiates
$42
2025-02-26
Reason
Goldman Sachs reinstated coverage of Baxter with a Buy rating and $42 price target. Over the next several quarters, the firm expects the company to make "meaningful progress" toward margin and cash flow improvement, driving its earnings above consensus estimates. Baxter's risk/reward is skewed positively at current levels, the analyst tells investors in a research note.

2025-02-20
Reason
Barclays reinstated coverage of Baxter with an Overweight rating and $39 price target. The firm updated its sales projections to reflect the company's continuing operations, which exclude sales of renal care in 2024, 2025 and beyond. The analyst believes the macro headwinds facing Baxter are largely discounted at current share levels. The stock's substantial year-to-date underperformance and "significant" deal-related financial flexibility position the shares to outperform relative to the market, the analyst tells investors in a research note.
Citigroup

Hold
Maintains
$37 → $35
2024-12-11
Reason
Citi analyst Joanne Wuensch lowered the firm's price target on Baxter to $35 from $37 and keeps a Neutral rating on the shares as part of a 2025 outlook for the U.S. medical technology sector. The stocks that outperformed in 2024 followed the traditional med tech path, and Citi expects the same in 2025: launching differentiated products that can be leveraged to the bottom-line, with management teams providing consistent delivery, the analyst tells investors in a research note. Citi names Boston Scientific (BSX) and Insulet (PODD) its top picks for 2025.

2024-11-11
Reason
Stifel analyst Rick Wise lowered the firm's price target on Baxter to $38 from $46 and keeps a Buy rating on the shares. Baxter delivered basically as-expected sales and better-than-expected EPS, but Q3 performance and the post-release call were "complicated on several fronts" due to late-Q3 hurricane-related challenges negatively impacting Baxter's North Cove manufacturing facility, the analyst tells investors. The late-Q3 hurricanes clearly have had a meaningfully negative Q4 impact, with management providing both sales and EPS guidance below prior consensus estimates, but management conveyed "considerable optimism" that in 2025 the RemainCo business ex-Kidney remains on track to grow sales 4%-5% year-over-year operationally and reach 16.5% adjusted operating margins, the analyst added.
