Oppenheimer analyst Owen Lau maintains $Equifax (EFX.US)$ with a buy rating, and maintains the target price at $315.
According to TipRanks data, the analyst has a success rate of 74.4% and a total average return of 11.9% over the past year.
Furthermore, according to the comprehensive report, the opinions of $Equifax (EFX.US)$'s main analysts recently are as follows:
Equifax's third-quarter results were described as 'mixed', with revenue and EBITDA margins slightly below estimates and consensus. Nevertheless, there was a positive aspect noted as mortgage inquiries during the third quarter showed year-over-year growth for the first time since 2021, suggesting a potential bottoming out in mortgage volumes which may gain from lower rates.
The firm views Equifax's guidance reduction as a minor negative, yet believes the company is poised for a period of robust multi-year EPS growth. They find the valuation appealing when normalized for the mortgage cycle and now regard the company as their premier idea within the consumer credit information sector.

奧本海默控股分析師Owen Lau維持$艾可菲 (EFX.US)$買入評級，維持目標價315美元。
根據TipRanks數據顯示，該分析師近一年總勝率為74.4%，總平均回報率為11.9%。
此外，綜合報道，$艾可菲 (EFX.US)$近期主要分析師觀點如下：
Equifax的第三季度業績被描述爲 「喜憂參半」，收入和息稅折舊攤銷前利潤率略低於預期和共識。儘管如此，第三季度的抵押貸款調查顯示，自2021年以來首次出現同比增長，這表明抵押貸款量可能會觸底，這可能會從較低的利率中獲益，因此也出現了積極的方面。
該公司認爲Equifax的預期下調幅度略爲負數，但認爲該公司已準備好迎來多年每股收益強勁增長的時期。他們發現抵押貸款週期正常化後的估值很有吸引力，現在他們將公司視爲他們在消費者信用信息領域的首要想法。
