Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about Procter & Gamble stock:
- 1. Wells Fargo & Co analysts commented, "We continue to expect money will chase companies that have momentum and are delivering, and PG should be a primary beneficiary. We are raising our price target by $10 to $135 and reiterate our Outperform rating." (7/30/2019)
- 2. According to Zacks Investment Research, "Procter & Gamble surpassed the industry in the past six months owing to robust earnings trend, strong second-quarter fiscal 2019 results and upbeat view for fiscal 2019. Top and bottom line beat estimates in the fiscal second quarter, marking 15th straight earnings beat and fifth sales beat in the last six quarters. Earnings benefited from the tax reforms, while strong organic growth with higher shipment volumes and favorable price/mix boosted sales. The company raised the sales guidance for fiscal 2019. It is also gaining from focus on product improvement, packaging and marketing initiatives, and productivity and cost-savings plan. However, it is witnessing strained margins owing to increased commodity and shipping costs, higher brand investments and aggressive pricing from private-label products amid intense competition. Moreover, adverse currency rates are hurting P&G’s results, which is likely to continue in fiscal 2019." (3/26/2019)
- 3. Jefferies Financial Group Inc analysts commented, "We attended Cincinnati, where the co. reiterated its outlook and announced it will change its internal organizational structure to better empower local business units and improve accountability – an area of focus in last year’s heated proxy battle with Nelson Peltz. We commend the co.’s decision, but remain on the sidelines awaiting greater signs of sustained fundamental improvement, while valuation at 20x NTM P/E appears full." (11/9/2018)
