What are Wall Street analysts saying about Autoliv stock?
Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about Autoliv stock:
- 1. Mizuho analysts commented, "We would note with APTV being strictly the Electronics and Safety segment now, the company is trading at ~1.7x F19E P/S, above the Powertrain segment (Delphi Technologies; DLPH) at ~1.0x and peer ALV at ~1x P/S. We believe an ALV split (with a decision expected late December) could unlock shareholder value as we show in subsequent pages." (12/11/2017)
- 2. According to Zacks Investment Research, "Autoliv’s third-quarter 2017 earnings per share and revenues came in higher than both the Zacks Consensus Estimates. Revenues improved year over year but earnings declined year over year. In September, Autoliv inked a deal to acquire certain assets of a Swedish based LiDAR specialist company. Also, innovative product launches, acquisitions and JVs are likely to boost its sales. Moreover, Autoliv has been witnessing a strong order intake. However, low organic sales growth expectation and stiff competition in passive safety products is a concern before it. Year to date, Autoliv has underperformed the industry it belongs to."
