Joseph C Giordano’s rating is based on several factors affecting Parker Hannifin’s stock. The operational estimates for the company have been adjusted slightly downward, reflecting a decrease in organic growth by approximately 100 basis points. Despite this, the assumptions regarding segment margins have remained largely consistent at the consolidated level.
Additionally, an incremental foreign exchange headwind has been factored into the analysis, although this is balanced by offsets in tax, interest, and other areas. The model and guidance also take into account an expected industrial recovery in the second half of the fiscal year, which plays a role in the overall assessment of the stock’s performance.
In another report released on January 31, Stifel Nicolaus also maintained a Hold rating on the stock with a $691.00 price target.
