Reason

KeyBanc lowered the firm's price target on Nordson to $230 from $260 and keeps an Overweight rating on the shares. Although companies across the Industrial universe took different approaches to the tariff impacts on guidance and the firm previously felt outlooks generally embedded some prudent conservatism, Liberation Day tariffs proved to be much more meaningful than anticipated and have created significant uncertainty for capital investment near-term. As such, KeyBanc sees risk to both the top- and margin-line updates on a go-forward basis.

Reason

KeyBanc upgraded Nordson to Overweight from Sector Weight with a $260 price target. The firm has been waiting for a better entry point, and with orders accelerating across the business, especially Electronics, it believes "now is an opportune time to step in." Nordson is positioned better versus prior cycles and the stock's current valuation "offers a rare entry point to one of the highest-quality names" in the sector, the analyst tells investors in a research note. KeyBanc believes that with the shares down 17% since reporting Q4 earnings, Nordson's risk/reward skews more positive.

Seaport Research upgraded Nordson to Buy from Neutral with a $250 price target. The firm cites valuation and expectations that the "NBS Next strategy" should return the company to above-average profitable growth. The pullback in the stock is a buying opportunity, the analyst tells investors in a research note. Seaport says that during the last two years, Nordson's organic sales and cash earnings growth rate declined, due to some sector headwinds in Advanced Tech, Medical and recently Industrial. However, many of the headwinds are coming to an end, or close to coming to an end, the firm contends.

Reason

Baird downgraded Nordson to Neutral from Outperform with a price target of $237, down from $294. The company's fiscal Q4 beat expectations but the Q1 guidance is below estimates and the fiscal 2025 guidance is second-half weighted, the analyst tells investors in a research note. The firm says Nordson's end-market commentary suggests growth is "likely muted" in 2025. Baird sees limited catalysts for reacceleration until fiscal 2026. Nordson's long-term opportunity is intact but Baird is taking a more patient near-term approach and looks to get more engaged as catalysts and paths to reacceleration become clearer, the analyst contends.
