What are Wall Street analysts saying about Dycom Industries stock?
Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about Dycom Industries stock:
- 1. According to Zacks Investment Research, "Shares of Dycom have underperformed its industry in the past year. Earnings estimates for 2018 have also remained unchanged over the past 60 days, limiting upside potential for the company's earnings growth potential. The overall results were negatively impacted by lower-than-expected large-scale deployments due to timing and tactical considerations. Again, under absorption of labor and field costs might continue to hurt its margins. Thus, it has lowered the mid-point of 2019 EPS view. Nonetheless, it is likely to gain from surging demand for 1-gigabit deployment and wireline networks, strong backlog, coupled with continuous contract flow in the long run. In order to expand its market share, Dycom seeks to grab opportunities by undertaking acquisitions. The company’s strong financial position and diligent operational execution allow it to undertake strategic initiatives." (1/23/2019)
- 2. Canaccord Genuity analysts commented, "We maintain our BUY rating and $90 price target for DY following this morning’s earnings report. Despite frustrations over the disappointing 2018 results implied in guidance, we do not believe there is any change to the fundamental story and continue to believe that DY is poised to capitalize on the long-term telecom investment cycle. We expect 2019 results to reflect the initial benefits of accelerating growth." (8/29/2018)
