Helios Technologies price target raised to $82 from $74 at KeyBanc

KeyBanc analyst Jeffrey Hammond raised the firm’s price target on Helios Technologies (HLIO) to $82 from $74 and keeps an Overweight rating on the shares. Following the company’s Q4 earnings release, although the initial 2026 outlook is only in-line with consensus vs. the now higher bar in Short-Cycle, the firm feels this reflects a meaningful degree of conservatism and is encouraged by the growing momentum exhibited in both Hydraulics and Electronics. While the stock has meaningfully re-rated amid much improved Short-Cycle sentiment, KeyBanc continues to see shares moving higher long-term as self-help levers and end-market recovery drive sustained positive estimate revisions.
