MarketBeat calculates consensus analyst ratings for stocks using the most recent rating from each Wall Street analyst that has rated a stock within the last twelve months. Each analyst's rating is normalized to a standardized rating score of 1 (sell), 2 (hold), 3 (buy) or 4 (strong buy). Analyst consensus ratings scores are calculated using the mean average of the number of normalized sell, hold, buy and strong buy ratings from Wall Street analysts. Each stock's consensus analyst rating is derived from its calculated consensus ratings score (0 to .5 = Strong Sell, .5 to 1 = Sell, 1 to 1.5 = Reduce, 1.5 to 2.5 = Hold, 2.5 to 3.0 = Moderate Buy, 3.0 to 3.5 = Buy, >3.5 = Strong Buy). MarketBeat's consensus price targets are a mean average of the most recent available price targets set by each analyst that has set a price target for the stock in the last twelve months. MarketBeat's consensus ratings and consensus price targets may differ from those calculated by other firms due to differences in methodology and available data.

Bear Case

red Wall Street bear icon

Investors should be bearish about investing in L3Harris Technologies, Inc. for these reasons:

  • Legal risks are increasing as Pomerantz LLP and other law firms have begun investigating claims on behalf of investors, which could lead to costly litigation and potential financial liabilities for the company.
  • Several prominent research firms have recently lowered their price targets, including UBS Group cutting its target from $312.00 to $298.00 and Susquehanna reducing its target from $410.00 to $350.00, reflecting a more cautious outlook on the stock's near-term performance.
  • Insider selling activity has been notable, with CEO Christopher E Kubasik selling 83,000 shares in September 2025 and other executives like Samir Mehta and Melanie Rakita executing multiple sales in early 2026, which may signal reduced internal confidence.
  • The stock has experienced significant volatility and a decline from its 52-week high of $379.23 to its current level, with a beta of 0.50 indicating it is less volatile than the market but still subject to sharp corrections as seen in the recent drop to 52-week lows.
