Wall Street Analysts Are Bullish on Top Industrial Goods PicksWe like the stock, as Q4 results were solid (Merchant accelerated mildly), quality of earnings are improving, and growth is expected to remain quite stable in the mid-single-digits. While 2025 guidance was a bit below the Street, it’s largely due to fx/divestiture impacts, while the biggest component of our 2025E/2026E EPS estimate trim is no longer are adding back stock comp to adjusted EPS (improving quality). We view 9X C2025E EPS as quite compelling for mid-single-digit revenue growth, 10%+ EPS growth, and improving leverage.
