Strong Buy

Reason

Truist lowered the firm's price target on Light & Wonder to $110 from $115 and keeps a Buy rating on the shares. The firm says that tariff uncertainty has re-rated its coverage lower - suggesting less confidence in estimates. Nonetheless, Truist thinks Gaming is among the best positioned sub-sectors within a perhaps more mixed consumer sector.

Reason

Stifel analyst Jeffrey Stantial lowered the firm's price target on Light & Wonder (LNW) to $84 from $93 and keeps a Hold rating on the shares. The firm's checks suggest stability across regional gross gaming revenue, lottery sales, and slot shipments, says the analyst, who forecasts a Q1 earnings beat for PlayAGS (AGS), misses for Light & Wonder and Everi Holdings (EVRI), and inline results for International Game (IGT). The firm updated estimates to reflect modest cost inflation and uncertainty-related pullback in replacements, the analyst added in a preview for the leisure gaming tech group.

Reason

Stifel lowered the firm's price target on Light & Wonder to $93 from $104 and keeps a Hold rating on the shares after the company held a call to update on Dragon Train litigation. The update addressed three additional complaints in Aristocrat's second amended complaint, notes the analyst, who remains cautious for now given relatively high direct and indirect tariff risk coupled with uncertainty around litigation and challenging comparisons.
