Celanese price target raised to $55 from $48 at RBC Capital

RBC Capital analyst Arun Viswanathan raised the firm’s price target on Celanese (CE) to $55 from $48 and keeps a Sector Perform rating on the shares. Challenging operating conditions persist, and Celanese remains focused on cash generation near-term, the analyst tells investors in a research note. Management is still aspiring to $1-$2 EPS per quarter in 2026, although a lack of demand growth could mean little y/y improvement, the firm added.
