Hold

Reason

Stifel analyst W. Andrew Carter believes Pool Corp.'s reduced FY25 guidance "falls short of the need to demonstrate stability in FY25" and gain confidence in the necessary inflection, so the firm believes the shares are likely to be under pressure today. The firm, which awaits commentary on the conference call is at 11 AM EDT, has a Hold rating on Pool shares, which are up nearly 7% to $337.53 in early trading.

Equal Weight

Reason

Wells Fargo analyst Sam Reid lowered the firm's price target on Pool Corp. to $300 from $315 and keeps an Equal Weight rating on the shares. The firm notes the macro is tough and Pool is not immune, with a Q1 miss and competitive price dynamics, while updated guide still broadly contemplates flattish new pool/reno despite some discretionary "pressure." In short, a tough quarter, Wells says, lowering estimates.

Reason

Stifel analyst W. Andrew Carter lowered the firm's price target on Pool Corp. to $300 from $330 and keeps a Hold rating on the shares.

Underperform

Reason

BofA analyst Shaun Calnan lowered the firm's price target on Pool Corp. to $280 from $295 and keeps an Underperform rating on the shares. The company's Q1 EPS miss was driven by lower revenue and management now expects 2025 gross margin to be flat year-over-year at 29.7%, down from a previous call for 29.7%-30%, the analyst tells investors. The firm lowerd its 2025 and 2026 EPS forecasts 1% each to reflect a slightly weaker revenue outlook and applies a lower multiple given the weaker growth outlook and elevated competition.
