BRP Inc. is under heavy selling pressure after suspending its fiscal 2027 financial guidance, a move that has rattled investors and raised fresh doubts about the company’s earnings outlook. The decision has also prompted a wave of analyst downgrades, adding to the negative sentiment around the stock.

The company is scrambling to reassess its long-term plans after a major change in U.S. Section 232 tariffs, which now imposes a 25% levy on the full value of imported snowmobiles and off-road vehicles. This shift from a metal-only tax is expected to add more than $500 million to BRP’s costs this year and could wipe out its previously projected net income.

Analysts are revisiting their models and many have lowered their ratings on BRP, citing the steep jump in operating costs and the uncertainty around how much of the tariff impact can be passed on to customers. The stock’s sharp drop reflects growing concerns that the company’s profitability and growth strategy may be significantly weakened in the near term.
