Fubotv earnings beat by $0.10, revenue topped estimates
Investing.com - Stifel has reiterated its Buy rating on Pentair (NYSE:PNR) stock with a price target of $125.00 following the company’s second-quarter 2025 results. The $17.25 billion market cap company, which according to InvestingPro data is currently trading at $104.87, has shown remarkable consistency with 50 consecutive years of dividend payments.
Pentair reported strong performance for the second quarter of 2025 and subsequently raised its full-year guidance, according to Stifel analyst Nathan Jones.
The company’s price assumption was reduced by approximately $50 million, primarily due to lower China tariffs, and by an additional $40 million related to the KBI divestiture. These reductions were offset by higher volume and favorable foreign exchange rates.
Stifel acknowledged that the "KBI acquisition clearly didn’t work out" for Pentair, but noted that the company "has made a lot more good bets than bad since the spin and executed at a high level."
The firm maintained its positive outlook on Pentair shares, keeping both its Buy recommendation and $125 target price unchanged following the earnings report.
In other recent news, Pentair reported second-quarter adjusted earnings that surpassed analyst expectations. Despite the positive earnings report, the company’s shares experienced a slight decline in pre-market trading, attributed to mixed guidance provided alongside the earnings announcement. Mizuho (NYSE:MFG) responded to these results by raising its price target for Pentair to $122, maintaining an Outperform rating due to what it described as "fairly solid" quarterly performance across various metrics. Conversely, TD Cowen downgraded Pentair from Buy to Hold, citing concerns over the company’s growth outlook. They also lowered their price target to $110, expressing worries about limited upside potential without a recovery in end markets. These recent developments reflect a mixed sentiment among analysts regarding Pentair’s near-term prospects.
