Louie DiPalma has given his Buy rating due to a combination of factors tied to VSE’s execution and growth strategy. He views the recent 7% pullback as an attractive entry point ahead of closing the PAG acquisition, noting that VSE is gaining share through new distribution and MRO contracts and has consistently executed its OEM-focused model while improving margins as a focused aerospace business.
He also highlights the expanded Pratt & Whitney Canada partnership, which makes VSE the exclusive distributor for thousands of APU components and reinforces its land-and-expand approach with major OEMs. The long-term, growing relationship with Pratt & Whitney and other RTX units, along with broadening geographic reach from the U.S. into Asia and Europe, supports his view that VSE is well positioned to outperform the aftermarket sector even in a softer macro environment.
In another report released on March 2, Truist Financial also reiterated a Buy rating on the stock with a $270.00 price target.
