$50 -> $54
2025-07-11
Reason
Truist raised the firm's price target on Smurfit Westrock to $54 from $50 and keeps a Buy rating on the shares as part of a broader research note on Packaging and Paper/Forest Product names. The firm is updating its models after having caught up with companies under coverage to discuss quarterly trends, the analyst tells investors in a research note. Q2 appears to have been a mixed bag overall, with can-makers performing well, while other packaging names have suffered from a persistently weak consumer, tariff uncertainty, and one-off events, Truist added.

$43 -> $45
2025-07-10
Reason
Wells Fargo raised the firm's price target on Smurfit Westrock to $45 from $43 and keeps an Equal Weight rating on the shares. The firm notes Q2 started with extreme uncertainty, but it believes largely exited in line with expectations. Q2 Cboard pricing was flat. Stressed consumers keep Wells cautious domestically, with ongoing trade tensions and export demand an underappreciated risk.

$63 -> $61
2025-07-02
Reason
BofA analyst Patrick Mann lowered the firm's price target on Smurfit Westrock to $61 from $63 and keeps a Buy rating on the shares. Smurfit Westrock should improve margins and returns over time on operational improvements and "value over volume" focus, the analyst tells investors in a research note. Consistent and clear messaging and successful execution will be key to "closing the discount" that Smurfit Westrock trades at relative to North American peers, BofA argues.
