CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:XYL delivered mixed Q1 results, with EPS of $1.12 beating consensus by $0.04 on operational execution, though orders were flat Y/Y. Revenue of $2.1B was flat organically, with strong Measurement & Control (M&C) sales (up 15%) offset by Water Solutions declines (down 15%). We attribute the beat to margin expansion and operational improvements from transformation initiatives, with adjusted EBITDA margin improving 20 bps to 20.6%. Management raised full-year revenue guidance to $9.2B-$9.3B from $9.1B-$9.2B, while maintaining EPS guidance at $5.35-5.60. Segment results were mixed, with M&C serving as a growth engine delivering 18% order growth on robust smart water tech demand, while Water Solutions orders declined 12% due to timing. We believe XYL's 80/20 simplification strategy continues supporting profitability amid inflationary pressures, though we take unchanged EPS guidance as lacking confidence that higher sales will translate to better margins.
CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:We keep our 12-month target at $92, 12.6x our next-12-month EPS view of $7.34. We trim our 2026 EPS view by $0.06 to $7.00 and 2027 by $0.44 to $7.52. Q1 offered some positives with top- and bottom-line beats and better-than-guided International profits (-15.7% vs. -30.0%). Management maintained its 2026 guidance of $89.7B revenue and 9.6% adjusted operating margin, projecting operational inflection in Q2. We think revenue goals are reasonable, but we think margin goals are overly optimistic as we estimate Q2-Q4 requires an average margin of ~10.7%. Consumer spending trends in the U.S. lead us to believe a pullback was materializing prior to the conflict in Iran and we expect that to accelerate. Declines in B2B volumes (-5.1%) indicate industrial weakness. We think cost recovery via fuel surcharges will fail to deliver on profit protection as consumers become less accepting of price increases. Continued margin compression could pressure dividend feasibility as our 2026 EPS view implies a ~94% payout ratio.
