Limoneira assumed with a Buy at Lake Street

Lake Street assumed coverage of Limoneira (LMNR) with a Buy rating and a price target of $19, down from $23. The company recently reported Q4 results that were pressured by the final stages of the Sunkist transition, restructuring actions, and avocado replanting activity, though weaker near-term profitability has a limited impact to the firm’s longer-term thesis, the analyst tells investors. Management guided to FY26 as an inflection year, notes the analyst, who views Limoneira as “increasingly positioned as a diversified asset-backed business with multiple value creation drivers over the next several years.”
