Jefferies analyst Jonathan Matuszewski maintains $Lowe's Companies (LOW.US)$ with a buy rating, and adjusts the target price from $274 to $301.
According to TipRanks data, the analyst has a success rate of 53.4% and a total average return of 6.5% over the past year.
Furthermore, according to the comprehensive report, the opinions of $Lowe's Companies (LOW.US)$'s main analysts recently are as follows:
Following Lowe's mixed third quarter performance, where sales gains were attributed to hurricanes with a modest improvement in the base business, costs to both gross margin and SG&A had an adverse effect on EBIT. The analysts now project minimal changes going forward, looking for further evidence of sales improvement in FY25 that would facilitate operating leverage and EPS recovery, which they believe is crucial for the stock moving forward.
Despite showing some improvement sequentially in DIY sectors and reporting a high single-digit percentage comp, Lowe's results didn't meet investor expectations, resulting in share prices dropping by 3%-4%. This was even as the top-line outlook improved, though profitability forecasts were somewhat reduced. Long-term industry drivers remain solid, with considerable attention turning towards the December Analyst Day for revised medium-term guidance.

富瑞集團分析師Jonathan Matuszewski維持$勞氏 (LOW.US)$買入評級，並將目標價從274美元上調至301美元。
根據TipRanks數據顯示，該分析師近一年總勝率為53.4%，總平均回報率為6.5%。
此外，綜合報道，$勞氏 (LOW.US)$近期主要分析師觀點如下：
在Lowe's混合第三季度表現之後，銷售增長歸因於颶風，基礎業務略有改善，但銷售毛利率和銷售與行政開支的成本對EBIT產生了不利影響。分析師們現在預計未來將有最小的變化，希望在FY25中找到進一步的銷售改善證據，以促進運營槓桿和每股收益的恢復，他們認爲這對股票未來的走勢至關重要。
儘管在DIY板塊顯示了一定的逐步改善，並報告了高個位數的單店銷售增長率，但Lowe's的業績未能達到投資者的期望，導致股價下跌了3%-4%。儘管銷售前景有所改善，但盈利預測略有下降。長期行業動力仍然穩固，許多關注點轉向了12月的分析師日，以獲取修訂後的中期指引。
