Market Perform

Reason

Raymond James analyst Bobby Zolper initiated coverage of Hawkins with a Market Perform rating and no price target. The firm is cautious on the shares following the 700% rally since 20219. Hawkins is an 80-year-old business with limited long-term earnings growth in the low- to mid-teens range, the analyst tells investors in a research note. Raymond James views the stock's valuation as "less-than-compelling."

Reason

BWS Financial upgraded Hawkins to Buy from Neutral with a price target of $160, up from $122. There were changes within the company's industrial business when the company reported end of 2024 quarterly results, which have continued to develop in the company's benefit as the tariffs imposed on Chinese imports should further assist the demand dynamics Hawkins had started to see in the prior quarter, the analyst tells investors.

Reason

BWS Financial downgraded Hawkins to Neutral from Buy with a $122 price target. The company's growth through inorganic means has resulted in the stock trading at a premium to the market and to company's historic levels, the analyst tells investors in a research note. In addition, Hawkins's industrial segment is likely to experience a decline in sales, putting greater emphasis on gross margin than on sales dollars, adds BWS. The firm says seasonality in the water treatment segment should result in the company's overall gross margin declining in the second half of fiscal 2025. As such, BWS prefers to wait for a better entry point.
