CNH Industrial

Moerus Worldwide Fund said it initiated a position in CNH Industrial, viewing the maker of Case IH and New Holland equipment as undervalued amid a potential recovery in farm machinery. The fund highlighted CNH's position as the second-largest high-horsepower agricultural equipment original equipment manufacturer behind John Deere and sees an oligopolistic market for professional farming machinery. CNH shares have risen about 31% over the past month and recently traded near $14.40, with a market capitalization around $22.0 billion. » Mere på finance.yahoo.com

The company beat expectations in the second quarter with adjusted earnings of $0.13 per share and revenue of $4.8 billion and raised its outlook. Analysts’ reactions ranged from upgrades such as Baird (Outperform, price target $15.00) to more cautious assessments from Wolfe Research, DA Davidson and Bernstein/SocGen. » Mere på de.investing.com

CNH management expects only an L‑shaped recovery in demand for agricultural machinery in 2027, as weak commodity prices are the main obstacle to a stronger upturn. Early order intake for model year 2027 is at 2026 levels; sales could get about a 4% tailwind if underproduction normalizes. In Brazil the situation remains tense without an improvement in commodity prices, in Europe inventories are seen as a timing issue, and CNH is continuing to review strategic options for its construction business without rushing to a decision. » Mere på de.investing.com

CNH Industrial reported adjusted EPS of $0.13 (expectation $0.10) and revenue of $4.8bn (+2%), after which the stock rose about 16% in premarket trading. Organic revenue growth stalled, margins fell in the agriculture and construction segments, but management raised the industrial free cash flow guidance to $200–400m and narrowed the EPS range for 2026 to $0.41–0.46. CNH expects relief in 2027 from lower tariffs and better production alignment, but remains cautious given a weak agricultural cycle and regional demand weakness. » Mere på de.investing.com

Oppenheimer rates CNH Industrial as “Outperform” with a $16.00 USD price target and sees significant upside potential.

The research house expects earnings to double by 2027 and highlights opportunities for higher aftermarket parts sales as well as efficiency gains from the wide rollout of “AI Tech Assist.” » Mere på de.investing.com
