Linde price target raised to $570 from $552 at RBC Capital

RBC Capital raised the firm’s price target on Linde (LIN) to $570 from $552 and keeps an Outperform rating on the shares. The company reported a relatively in-line quarter and its raised FY26 guidance signaled expectations for low single-digit volume and high single-digit EPS growth, the analyst tells investors in a research note. FX tailwinds should wane in the second half, although Linde did not underwrite helium improvement in its guide, which could push it towards the high end of its $17.60-$17.90 FY26 guide, the firm added.
