D.A. Davidson analyst Linda Bolton Weiser maintains $Mattel (MAT.US)$ with a buy rating.
According to TipRanks data, the analyst has a success rate of 43.4% and a total average return of -0.5% over the past year.
Furthermore, according to the comprehensive report, the opinions of $Mattel (MAT.US)$'s main analysts recently are as follows:
Mattel's robust performance in Q3 was somewhat eclipsed by a Q4 EPS outlook that appears significantly lower than anticipated, based on the full-year guidance. Although this guidance might turn out to be cautious, it's premature to conclude given the critical sales period looming, alongside a truncated holiday season, forthcoming election, and persistent uncertainty among consumers.
Following Mattel's report of Q3 adjusted earnings per share at $1.14, surpassing the anticipated $1.02, there has been an upward revision of the calendar 2025 EPS estimate to $1.65. This adjustment accounts for ongoing gross margin expansion and an anticipated $150M in gross billings from the forthcoming Jurassic World Rebirth, slated for release in July 2025.
