What Is the Latest Analyst Price Target?

Market data shows an average price target of $60.45 from 14 analysts with ratings in the past 12 months. Against the $55.35 close, that suggests implied upside of about 9.2 per cent. Its range runs from $42 to $83.

The second data set, using third-party data, shows a mean of $63.79, a median of $61, a high of $86 and a low of $42 across 17 analysts. Both averages sit above the simple average of the eight named broker targets issued between 31 August and 9 October 2026, which is roughly $57. This suggests older, higher targets are still included in the data. Because targets have been falling quickly, the consensus could move lower as data sets update.

What Are Wall Street Analysts Saying?

Sentiment is cautious. Market data reports 1 Buy, 9 Hold and 4 Sell ratings, a consensus of Reduce. The second data set lists 3 Strong Buy, 10 Hold and 4 Strong Sell, giving a Hold consensus.

Recent named actions on market data are mostly reductions. Barclays lowered its target from $75 to $53 on 9 October with an Equal Weight rating. Jefferies moved to Underperform and cut its target from $53 to $42 on 2 October. UBS held a Neutral rating with a $57 target on 24 September, and Morgan Stanley cut its target from $65 to $60 on 18 September with an Underweight rating. Bank of America downgraded the shares from Buy to Neutral with a target cut from $81 to $51 on 1 September, and Mizuho moved to Neutral with a $70 target on 31 August.

What Could Help the Stock Reach the Price Target?

The share price is still above several of the latest named targets, so a recovery in analyst sentiment would be needed for the shares to move towards the consensus figure. Market data shows quarterly earnings per share of $1.54 against a $1.18 consensus, although revenue of $4.36 billion fell 4.1 per cent year on year and missed estimates. It also lists a quarterly dividend of $0.8775 per share, payable on 31 October 2026. Clearer resolution of wildfire-related liabilities, a key concern in the market data, could ease worries.

What Could Prevent the Stock Reaching the Target?

Wildfire liabilities, including those linked to the Eaton fire, are the main concern named on market data. The recent run of target cuts and downgrades shows analysts have become more cautious, and the lowest target of $42 is well below the current price.

What Should Investors Watch Next?

Investors may also watch for further target revisions, updates on wildfire liabilities and any change in rating distribution in either data set.
