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

• 1. 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." (7/21/2017)
• 2. According to Zacks Investment Research, "Snap-On has registered an excellent earnings surprise history over the trailing four quarters, beating estimates all through. The company has devised a comprehensive blueprint to drive long-run growth, by enhancing franchise network, expanding footprint in vehicle repair garage & vital industries, and penetrating emerging markets. Its financing business is witnessing strong momentum, and the recent Norbar Torque & Car-O-Liner acquisitions should also drive growth. Solid prospects across business segments, diversified portfolio and impressive traction of new products add to its strength. However, year to date, Snap-on’s shares have underperformed the Zacks categorized Tools-Hand Held industry average. Sluggish oil market activities, price volatility and high currency fluctuation risks pose as major concerns. This apart, stiff competition, volatility in price of raw materials and currency fluctuations add to the company’s woes." (7/19/2017)
