Dow Inc (DOW) Stock Forecast & Price Target
Dow Inc (DOW) Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
Dow Chemical is positioned for a positive outlook primarily due to anticipated increased demand for film plastics, driven by the growing need for fresh food packaging. The company expects improvement in Q3 performance, supported by price increases of 5-7 cents per pound, reduced merchant ethylene sales, and contributions from new products like Poly-7. Additionally, Dow's ability to operate with flexible feedstock provides a competitive edge over higher-cost producers in the market.
Bears say
The financial outlook for Dow Chemical has deteriorated, with EBITDA estimates for Q3, FY25, and FY26 being revised down to $800 million, $3.15 billion, and $3.60 billion, respectively, from previous projections of $1.03 billion, $3.85 billion, and $4.70 billion. This reduction reflects a heightened concern over demand weakness and overall economic conditions, leading to a lower price target adjusted from $30 to $26. Additionally, the valuation multiple has been slightly increased to 8.0x for FY26, indicating a recognition of trough earnings levels amid continued pressure from oil prices and diminishing demand.
