David Farrell has given his Buy rating due to a combination of factors, including the company’s strategic focus and recent financial developments. FLSmidth & Co. A/S has shown significant progress in the first half of 2025 by disposing of its Cement and Air Pollution Control businesses, which aligns with its strategy to concentrate on becoming a mining equipment pure-play. This strategic shift is expected to enhance the company’s value proposition.
Moreover, the company has upgraded its guidance following the second-quarter pre-release, indicating a positive outlook. The potential for the Products Division to move towards a break-even point from its current negative EBITA margin could significantly improve the overall group margin. These factors, combined with the company’s efforts to maximize value in higher-margin, less volatile segments like Services and PC&V, underpin the Buy rating.
According to TipRanks, Farrell is a 4-star analyst with an average return of 10.5% and a 65.99% success rate. Farrell covers the Industrials sector, focusing on stocks such as Volution, Chemring, and Hill & Smith Holdings.
In another report released on August 15, Kepler Capital also maintained a Buy rating on the stock with a DKK440.00 price target.
