What are Wall Street analysts saying about Sealed Air stock?
Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about Sealed Air stock:
- 1. According to Zacks Investment Research, "Sealed Air is poised to benefit from the sale of the Diversey unit, which will help it enhance focus on Food Care and Product Care divisions. Further, focus on innovations and acquisitions will also drive growth. The company is winning new customers around the world given its innovative platforms. Sealed Air’s top line will also be supported by enhanced demand for core product portfolio and accelerated growth in the global protein market along with the e-Commerce sector. For 2018, Sealed Air projects net sales of approximately $4.75-$4.80 billion and adjusted earnings per share in the range of $2.35-$2.45, a 33% increase at the midpoint. In addition, the company plans to drive profitable growth by improving productivity with its Sealed Air Operational Excellence culture in 2018. Moreover, the stock outperformed the industry over the past six months." (4/17/2018)
- 2. KeyCorp analysts commented, "We’re ending up at the low end of the guided-to range given the fact that the guidance is back-half weighted; many things can happen between now and then. To that end, it appears likely that U.S. polyethylene (PE) prices will go up in February, even with the recent sharp move down in oil prices. We’re going to $890 million of EBITDA from $860 million previously, and we’re introducing a 2019 EBITDA estimate of $910 million. We are maintaining our 2018 free cash flow estimate of $400 million (guidance was in line with our previous estimate) and assuming $20 million of free cash flow growth in 2019, in line with our EBITDA growth assumption. The Company called out a $45 million payment in 1Q18 that will be a drag on its 2018 free cash flow, but at the same time noted that it’s excluding $30 million of restructuring cash payments from that guided-to ~$400 million."
