Joseph C Giordano has given his Hold rating due to a combination of factors impacting Rockwell Automation’s current and future performance. One of the key considerations is the influence of prebuy activities, which have been more prevalent than previously discussed in public company calls. These activities have stabilized orders but do not show clear momentum into the fiscal year 2026, raising concerns about the sustainability of current demand levels.
Additionally, while there is potential for revenue acceleration, there is not yet sufficient evidence to support this outcome. This uncertainty, combined with a subdued growth outlook and the need for growth to support the company’s current valuation multiple, contributes to the Hold rating. Although margins appear to be a stronger aspect for Rockwell Automation, the overall growth prospects remain a critical factor in the assessment.
In another report released on August 13, TR | OpenAI – 4o also reiterated a Hold rating on the stock with a $367.00 price target.
