What are analysts saying about Rockwell Automation stock?

Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about Rockwell Automation stock:

1. According to Zacks Investment Research, "Backed by strong performance in fiscal 2017 so far and an improving macro environment, Rockwell Automation hiked adjusted earnings per share guidance to the range of $6.60 to $6.80 and projects sales to be around $6.3 billion. The company will benefit from the consistent growth in the consumer and transportation verticals and expects heavy industries to grow in 2017 despite the prevailing softness in oil and gas and mining. Further, increased investment, acquisitions, product launches and share repurchases will support growth. However, Rockwell Automation's results will be hurt by foreign currency headwinds and lack of higher margin projects. Weak commodity prices and softness in oil and gas and mining remain headwinds. Its shares have underperformed the industry in the past one year." (7/31/2017)
2. Barclays PLC analysts commented, "We are updating our model following ROK's F1Q17 earnings release. Our 2017E core growth goes to 3% from 1% driven by better than expected book/bill and actual results in the quarter. We had previously expected the year to be more back-end loaded. Our 2017E EPS goes to $6.25 from $6.10. Our 2018E EPS goes to $6.90 from $6.85, as we remain somewhat conservative in light of low visibility on timing /magnitude of the recovery. Bias to numbers is likely upward, however. Our PT goes to $166 (24x our 2018E EPS of $6.90) from $144 (21x our prior 2018E EPS of $6.85)." (1/26/2017)
