Piper Sandler lowered the firm’s price target on Utz Brands (UTZ) to $13 from $15 and keeps an Overweight rating on the shares. The firm notes the company pre-announced Q4 2025 sales below consensus, driven by retailer de-stocking in late Q4, though EBITDA was in-line with estimates. Piper considers its increased push into CA is a positive, supporting sustainable outperformance vs. the category, which is back to growth but remains below historical levels.
