Kate McShane has given his Buy rating due to a combination of factors that highlight Lowe’s solid fundamental performance and constructive outlook. The company delivered fourth-quarter earnings and revenue above both Goldman Sachs and broader Street expectations, supported by positive same-store sales and strength in pro customers, digital channels, and home services, alongside a healthy holiday season.
Looking ahead, management’s fiscal 2026 guidance points to sales and comparable growth meaningfully ahead of consensus, with double-digit earnings per share and expanding operating margins despite near-term pressure. Inventory discipline and an improving payables position further support cash generation and financial flexibility, reinforcing the view that the current share price does not fully reflect Lowe’s medium-term earnings power.
In another report released today, KeyBanc also maintained a Buy rating on the stock with a $300.00 price target.
LOW’s price has also changed slightly for the past six months – from $258.870 to $263.020, which is a 1.60% increase.
