What are Wall Street analysts saying about Hill-Rom stock?
Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about Hill-Rom stock:
- 1. According to Zacks Investment Research, "Hill-Rom has outperformed its industry in the last three months. The upside has been driven by strong prospects in Canada and the Middle East, which witnessed double-digit growth lately. Also, strength in Europe and Latin America holds promise. The company is also focusing on product innovation through research and development. In this regard, Hill-Rom recently announced the upgrading of its Welch Allyn Spot Vision Screener. Also, the company’s long-range financial objectives through 2020, looks promising. However, a decline in revenues at the company's Patient Support Systems segment is quite disappointing. Also, foreign exchange and a tough competitive landscape remain headwinds." (7/2/2018)
- 2. Needham & Company LLC analysts commented, "Consistent with its 1/9/18 preannouncement, HRC beat consensus F1Q18 revenue and EPS. Management reiterated its FY18 revenue guidance and raised its FY18 adjusted EPS guidance due to tax reform. Organic revenue growth slowed somewhat to 2% in F1Q18 from 3% in F4Q17. Margins increased modestly Y/ Y with gross margin up 20 bps and operating margin up 10 bps and tax reform added $0.06 to EPS. One surprise was that CEO John Greisch announced his intention to retire in F3Q18; the board has initiated a CEO search. We expect new products including the Centrella bed to drive accelerating revenue growth while cost reductions and portfolio management drive margin expansion. HRC shares remain at a discount to peers (2018E P/E of 18.5x vs. small/mid-cap value peers at 24.3x) and we reiterate our Buy rating." (1/26/2018)
