BofA Securities lowers Mobileye stock price target to $18 on revised outlook

Investing.com - BofA Securities has lowered its price target on Mobileye N.V (NASDAQ:MBLY) to $18.00 from $19.00 while maintaining a Neutral rating on the stock. The autonomous driving technology company, currently trading at $16.07 with a market capitalization of $13 billion, has seen its stock decline by 12.5% over the past week. According to InvestingPro analysis, the stock appears undervalued relative to its Fair Value.

The price target adjustment follows Mobileye’s preliminary quarterly results announcement, prompting BofA Securities to revise its second-quarter estimates for the company.

BofA Securities has also adjusted its third and fourth quarter projections, noting that production schedules appear more solid in the second half of the year than initially anticipated, though the firm remains less optimistic than consensus regarding Mobileye’s 2026 results.

The firm has changed its price objective methodology from discounted cash flow (DCF) to enterprise value to sales (EV/Sales) to better reflect current market dynamics in valuation, applying a 7.5x multiple to Mobileye’s estimated 2025 sales.

BofA Securities considers this multiple appropriate given recent developments in the autonomous vehicles rollout timeline, factors that contributed to its decision to maintain a Neutral rating on Mobileye stock.
