BofA Securities analyst Alexander Perry maintains $Mattel (MAT.US)$ with a buy rating, and maintains the target price at $28.
According to TipRanks data, the analyst has a success rate of 37.8% and a total average return of -3.4% over the past year.
Furthermore, according to the comprehensive report, the opinions of $Mattel (MAT.US)$'s main analysts recently are as follows:
The firm acknowledges Mattel's significant third-quarter performance, which was tempered by the fourth-quarter earnings per share that were suggested to be substantially lower than anticipated, based on the full-year outlook. Although this guidance may turn out to be prudent, it is premature to conclude given the critical upcoming sales period, which includes a shorter holiday season, a looming election, and persistent consumer uncertainty.
Following Mattel's report of an adjusted EPS of $1.14 in Q3, surpassing the anticipated $1.02, there is a positive outlook on the company's financial performance. The projection for calendar 2025 EPS was increased to $1.65, taking into account ongoing expansion in gross margins and a projected $150M gross billing contribution from the upcoming release of Jurassic World Rebirth in July 2025.
