Maxim Group analyst Matthew Galinko has maintained their neutral stance on UIS stock, giving a Hold rating yesterday.
Matthew Galinko has given his Hold rating due to a combination of factors that balance the potential risks and rewards associated with Unisys’s current financial situation. The company’s first-quarter results showed a mixed performance, with revenue falling short of expectations but adjusted EBITDA surpassing them. This indicates some operational efficiency, although the revenue shortfall is a concern.
Furthermore, Unisys has reiterated its guidance for modest revenue growth and a reasonable operating margin for 2025, which suggests stability but not significant growth. The company’s backlog and total contract value have shown improvement, yet the transition from lower-margin legacy services and the need to manage substantial pension obligations present challenges. Given these factors, Galinko views the risk/reward profile as balanced, justifying a Hold rating.
According to TipRanks, Galinko is an analyst with an average return of -8.5% and a 32.91% success rate. Galinko covers the Technology sector, focusing on stocks such as WISeKey International Holding, Unisys, and SEALSQ Corp.
In another report released yesterday, Sidoti also maintained a Hold rating on the stock with a $8.00 price target.
