Reason

Needham lowered the firm's price target on Clearfield to $45 from $50 and keeps a Buy rating on the shares. The company delivered solid Q4 results with consolidated revenue 2% above consensus, though its EPS of $(0.65) was impacted by a $10.4M write down of the divested Nestor BU, the analyst tells investors in a research note. Clearfield's prudent guidance implies core y/y revenue growth of 6% in Q1 and 10% in FY26 as the market adjusts to BEAD-driven demand and a likely fiber shortage in 2026, the firm added.

Market Perform -> Outperform

Reason

Northland analyst Tim Savageaux upgraded Clearfield to Outperform from Market Perform with an unchanged price target of $45. Recent commentary from fiber access systems and backhaul suppliers around increased BEAD visibility in calendar year 2026, as well as a recent round of approvals of 18 state final proposals, are positives that were not reflected in Q4 results and weaker guidance driven by seasonality and the recent government shutdown, the analyst says. The firm believes BEAD and its associated positive impacts on private funding can help drive consistent 20%-plus growth for Clearfield, the analyst added.

Reason

Lake Street lowered the firm's price target on Clearfield to $41 from $52 and keeps a Buy rating on the shares. While noting that fiscal Q1 guidance is "a bit soft," even factoring in the Nestor Cables divesture, the firm is "encouraged" by management's expectation for improvement throughout FY26. With a strong balance sheet and increased buyback, the firm thinks "there should be a relatively high floor on shares in the near term," the analyst added.

Reason

Roth Capital lowered the firm's price target on Clearfield to $43 from $50 and keeps a Buy rating on the shares. Q4 results and the outlook were below expectations, further complicated by the recent divestiture of Clearfield's European operations, the analyst tells investors in a post-earnings note. The firm lowers its near-term outlook, initiated FY27 estimates that include 20%-plus growth, and expects shares to be supported by the expanded buyback, the analyst added.

Reason

Roth Capital raised the firm's price target on Clearfield to $50 from $45 and keeps a Buy rating on the shares after the company's beat expectations, driven by Nestor, a European developer and manufacturer of cables. After the company maintained its prior FY25 outlook that implies flattish September sales before slower winter seasonality, the firm lowered its near-term expectations, but maintains its FY26 outlook.

Outperform -> Market Perform

Reason

Northland analyst Tim Savageaux downgraded Clearfield to Market Perform from Outperform with an unchanged price target of $45 following the company's "solid" fiscal Q3 results and outlook. The firm notes continued weakness internationally at Nestor Cables and Nestor revenues set to decline nearly 20% in FY25 versus initial flat expectations. However, stabilizing revenue and reduced losses in FY26 are a potential tailwind along with reduced uncertainty around BEAD, the analyst added.
