Nordson (NDSN) Stock Forecast & Price Target
Nordson (NDSN) Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
Nordson's total sales experienced a modest year-over-year increase of 1%, reaching $752 million, with notable growth in the Advanced Technology Solutions segment, which saw revenue rise 17.4% driven by strong organic performance. The company projects fiscal year 2026 sales to range between $2.83 billion and $2.95 billion, reflecting a solid anticipated growth trajectory despite certain headwinds from divestitures. Additionally, with a strong free cash flow conversion exceeding 100% and a manageable net leverage of 2.1x, Nordson demonstrates robust financial health and balance sheet flexibility, supporting a positive outlook for its stock performance.
Bears say
Nordson's financial outlook appears negative primarily due to persistent organic declines in revenue, particularly within its Industrial Precision Solutions segment, which reported a 2.0% decrease year-over-year driven by weaker demand in polymer processing. Additionally, while the company's net debt to trailing twelve months (TTM) EBITDA ratio improved slightly to 2.1x, it remains concerning given the relatively constant debt load, indicating challenges in effectively managing leverage. Furthermore, the sequential decline of approximately 5% in backlog after a strong first half of fiscal 2025 raises further concerns about future revenue growth and operational momentum.
