Barclays analyst Matthew Bouley lowered the firm’s price target on Fortune Brands Innovations (FBIN) to $68 from $79 and keeps an Overweight rating on the shares as part of a Q1 earnings preview for the homebuilding and building products group.

Tariff uncertainty adds further risk to margin guides, especially for select products names, the analyst tells investors in a research note.
