Michael Shlisky has given his Buy rating due to a combination of factors that, in his view, make the recent pullback in OSK shares unwarranted. He notes that the first-quarter earnings shortfall was driven largely by transitory issues such as severe winter weather and related delays in fire truck deliveries, while management kept its full‑year EPS outlook intact and continues to signal a stronger second half.

Shlisky also highlights that a substantial portion of Oshkosh’s 2026 revenue is effectively secured, with major programs in Fire, Airport, Defense, and the NGDV mail truck contract either fully booked or progressing as planned. He believes the Access segment’s improving trajectory can offset any lingering headwinds, and with the stock now trading in the lower half of its historical range despite steady medium‑term and 2028 guidance, he views the current weakness as a compelling buying opportunity.

According to TipRanks, Shlisky is a 4-star analyst with an average return of 6.2% and a 47.55% success rate. Shlisky covers the Industrials sector, focusing on stocks such as Wabash National, Aebi Schmidt Holding AG, and Alamo Group.

In another report released today, Barclays also maintained a Buy rating on the stock with a $150.00 price target.
