Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about Snap-On Incorporated stock:

• 1. According to Zacks Investment Research, "Tough macroeconomic conditions have been plaguing Snap-On in recent times. Sluggish oil and gas market activity and softness in industrial markets continue to negatively impact Snap-on’s revenues. Also, instability in the credit and financial markets and lower business & consumer spending will hurt its prospects. This apart, volatility in price of raw materials and ongoing sluggishness in Tools Storage products add to the company’s woes. In addition, over the past three months, Snap-on’s shares have underperformed the industry's average decline. On the positive side, Snap-On has a robust earnings surprise history over the trailing four quarters, having beaten estimates all through. Also, the company has been witnessing encouraging prospects in most of its business lines that will likely unlock new growth avenues going forward." (9/20/2017)
• 2. FBR & Co analysts commented, "SNA shares offer investors a compelling opportunity after being off about 5% on mixed 2Q17 results vs. the S&P 500 essentially flat. We believe all three businesses still have favorable outlooks. Despite slowing growth in the core van channel business, there are additional growth drivers that include enhancing the core Snap-on van channel, expanding the customer base, extending its reach in critical industries, and capitalizing on the development of emerging markets. With three business segments generating low- to mid-single-digit annual organic revenue growth, the company continues to generate positive operating leverage from a more favorable product mix and continuous improvement initiatives."
