What are Wall Street analysts saying about Lindsay stock?
Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about Lindsay stock:
- 1. According to Zacks Investment Research, "Lindsay remains focused to simplify its business in order to improve productivity. Lindsay’s infrastructure business continues to generate growth on the back of strong order activity, comprising the Alex Fraser Bridge and Road Zipper projects. The acquisition of Elecsys Corporation is a strategic addition to the company’s long-term goal of leading the market in advanced technologies for managing water-usage efficiency. However, its results will be hurt by a tough agricultural market in North America and fluctuating commodity prices. Also, elevated costs in connection with its Foundation for Growth performance improvement initiative, lower infrastructure spending and tariffs on steel prices remain major headwinds. Its estimates have undergone negative revisions lately. The company has a negative record of earnings surprises in the last few quarters. " (12/18/2018)
