CAE shares are under pressure even as the company posts strong fiscal Q3 2026 results, with adjusted earnings rising and a record defense backlog driven by growing global demand for simulation training amid geopolitical tensions. The stock’s recent slide contrasts with its reputation as a contract-driven business that can keep margins stable during broader market volatility and trade disruptions.
Despite the downturn in the share price, analyst Matthew Lee at CCORF has turned more optimistic on CAE’s prospects and upgraded the stock to Buy. He also lifted his price target to $35.95, implying about 31% upside from current levels and signaling confidence that the market may be underestimating the company’s earnings power and long-term demand tailwinds.
