Reason
Citi lowered the firm's price target on General Dynamics to $335 from $360 and keeps a Buy rating on the shares. Following "mixed results" in Q4, the firm lowers topline estimates in 2025 as well as operation margins due in part to prolonged operational challenges in Aero, mix shifts in Technology, and continuing improvements in Marine, the analyst tells investors.

2025-01-30
Reason
RBC Capital lowered the firm's price target on General Dynamics to $280 from $290 and keeps a Sector Perform rating on the shares after its Q4 results. The firm remains bullish on the 2025 Gulfstream outlook, but warns that muted free cash flow and limited 2025 margin upside in defense, with greater defense spending uncertainty, is keeping it cautious on the stock, the analyst tells investors in a research note. RBC is also cutting its FY25 EPS view on General Dynamics to $14.82 from $15.43.
