Reason
Goldman Sachs initiated coverage of Hormel Foods with a Buy rating and $35 price target. The company has a strong packaged food portfolio with a variety of brands, price points, and occasions across key protein categories, the analyst tells investors in a research note. The firm sees an improving earnings outlook for Hormel, driven by the recovery of its Planters business, stabilization in the turkey supply backdrop, and ongoing cost savings efforts. Consensus estimates underestimate the company's ability to reaccelerate growth into fiscal 2026 while the stock's valuation also screens attractive, contends Goldman.

Reason
Barclays raised the firm's price target on Hormel Foods to $36 from $35 and keeps an Equal Weight rating on the shares. Entering 2025, the firm is more optimistic about crop protection and maintains a positive outlook on diversified international protein names and ingredients. In contrast, Barclays adds caution to its grain processor coverage and adjusted ratings in fertilizer given the recent run-up in share prices. It recognizes the strength in potash volumes in 2024 did not bring stock appreciation for the major potash players.
