Investing.com - Stifel maintained its Hold rating and $136.00 price target on Lindsay Corporation (NYSE:LNN) on Friday. According to InvestingPro data, the company currently trades at $143.23, with a P/E ratio of 19.74 and maintains a GOOD financial health score.
The agricultural equipment manufacturer reported better-than-expected top and bottom-line results in its latest quarter, according to Stifel. The firm noted that Lindsay’s performance was bolstered by its execution on a large Middle East and North Africa (MENA) irrigation project in its international segment.
Lindsay also announced a new $20 million project that is expected to begin shipping in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2025, providing additional visibility for future revenue streams.
The demand outlook for Lindsay’s domestic irrigation business remains soft in the near term, Stifel reported. However, the firm characterized this demand as "relatively stable" when excluding potential supply shocks.
Stifel’s maintained price target of $136.00 reflects its assessment of Lindsay’s current business mix between stronger international project work and the softer domestic irrigation market conditions.
