Rockwell Automation (ROK) Stock Forecast & Price Target
Rockwell Automation (ROK) Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
Rockwell Automation's positive outlook is largely supported by an anticipated increase in the FY25 segment margin to approximately 20%, driven by effective cost reduction and margin expansion initiatives expected to generate over $250 million year-over-year. The company has also raised its non-GAAP EPS guidance to a range of $9.20 to $10.20, reflecting strong performance with an EPS of $2.45 that surpassed consensus estimates, aided by favorable pricing strategies contributing to overall growth. Additionally, management's commitment to ongoing cost-out initiatives is expected to enhance SG&A leverage, which could lead to stronger earnings per share growth as revenue increases.
Bears say
Rockwell Automation has experienced a decline in reported revenue of 4% year-over-year, with each of its segments contributing to this drop: Intelligent Devices down 8.0%, Software & Control down 0.4%, and Lifecycle Services down 7.8%. Furthermore, forecasts suggest a potential revenue decline of approximately 2% in 2025, alongside a significant decremental margin of around 28%, indicating challenges in maintaining profitability amidst decreasing sales. The company’s guidance does not account for potential pricing growth, which raises concerns about future revenue stabilization and overall financial performance.
