Kyle Peterson has given his Buy rating due to a combination of factors including Donnelley Financial Solutions’ strong third-quarter performance, which exceeded market expectations in both revenue and earnings. This positive outcome was primarily driven by robust activity in capital markets, enhancing the company’s tech-enabled services and Active Disclosure revenue streams. Additionally, a significant one-time tax benefit from the termination of a pension plan contributed to the earnings beat, which is expected to simplify and strengthen the company’s financial position.
Despite a conservative fourth-quarter outlook influenced by the government shutdown’s impact on capital markets, the current valuation of DFIN shares presents an attractive opportunity for small-cap value investors. Trading at a forward P/E multiple of approximately 10 times for fiscal year 2026, the stock offers a compelling risk-reward profile. Consequently, while the price target has been adjusted to $57, the Buy rating is maintained.
