Cautious Hold on Air Products Amid Strategic Shift and Execution RisksWe see APD now heading in the right direction under new leadership, but believe that outperformance hinges largely on multiple expansion at this point. We think this requires ROIC improvement, which is likely to take time and is not without risk. We resume coverage with an Equal-weight rating and a $290 price target. We believe that new CEO Eduardo Menezes has provided a sober assessment of the significant changes required at Air Products to get the company (and the stock) back on track following a material change in the company's growth strategy which pivoted it away from the traditional high quality/high multiple industrial gas business model (long term take/pay contracts with CapEx/cost pass through) towards the more cyclical/lower multiple commodity chemicals business model (no offtake agreements: 100% of CapEx and cycle risk/reward).
