Louie DiPalma has given his Buy rating due to a combination of factors that highlight Curtiss-Wright’s strong growth potential. The company’s increased revenue guidance from the U.S. Navy, which is its largest revenue source, reflects a positive outlook. This is supported by the U.S. Navy’s efforts to resolve supply-chain issues, thereby enhancing submarine production rates, which is expected to benefit Curtiss-Wright’s financial performance in the upcoming quarters.
Additionally, the recent $80 billion U.S. government deal with Westinghouse has sparked further interest in the AP1000 opportunity, which is significant for Curtiss-Wright. The company anticipates substantial revenue from supplying reactor cooling pumps for AP1000 reactors, with each reactor generating approximately $120 million in revenue. The high-margin nature of these pumps, coupled with the expected orders starting in 2026, positions Curtiss-Wright favorably for future growth, reinforcing DiPalma’s Buy rating.
In another report released on October 23, TR | OpenAI – 4o also reiterated a Buy rating on the stock with a $550.00 price target.
