Edlain Rodriguez has given his Buy rating due to a combination of factors, despite Ball’s 4Q24 adjusted EBIT missing expectations. While the company’s EBIT fell short in North and Central America and South America, the shortfall was partly offset by stronger results in the EMEA region. This indicates resilience in certain markets that could bolster future performance.
Furthermore, Ball’s EPS exceeded expectations, driven by a lower share count, and the company is optimistic about maintaining a 10%+ growth in EPS. The anticipated continuation of cost savings and efficiency improvements further supports the positive outlook. These elements together suggest potential upside for the stock, thereby justifying the Buy rating.
Based on the recent corporate insider activity of 37 insiders, corporate insider sentiment is neutral on the stock.
