-- 在甲醇生產商Methanex（MX.TO，MEOH）公佈第一季業績後，加拿大帝國商業銀行資本市場（CIBC Capital Markets）重申了對該公司股票的「中性」評級，並將目標股價從66美元上調至69美元。 「我們維持對Methanex的『中性』評級，同時將目標股價從66美元上調至69美元，原因是我們的企業價值/息稅折舊攤銷前利潤（EV/EBITDA）估值倍數上調了0.25倍（目前為2027年預期7.0倍）。這反映出甲醇價格環境的改善，應有助於加快去槓桿化進程（進程應有助於加快去槓桿化（進程應有助於加快去槓桿化（甲醇價格去槓桿化）。到年底為1.8倍，而2026年第一季為4.2倍）。 Patel寫道。 （報告北美、亞洲和歐洲主要銀行及研究機構的股票、商品和經濟研究報告。研究機構可透過以下連結聯絡我們：https://www..com/contact-us）

CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:We raise our 12-month target by $1 to $87, 22.0x our next-12-month EPS estimate, above peers and CMS's three-year historical average of 18.4x. We trim both our 2026 and 2027 EPS views by $0.02 to $3.88 and $4.17, respectively. CMS posted Q1 adjusted EPS growth of 10.8%. CMS announced that two hyperscaler data centers had reached commercial agreement on contract terms and signed 110 MW of new load in Q1 alone (exceeding all of 2025's signings), with expected load coming online starting in 2028, all incremental to the current plan. Each 1 GW of new load provides $2B-$5B in capital investment opportunities while reducing average customer rate growth by ~2%. We think CMS offers competitive near-term EPS (~7.6% 2025-2028 CAGR) and dividend growth trajectories (~5.8%). In our view, Michigan is one of the most supportive regulatory districts in the country, with CMS's most recent electric rate case outcome highlighting regulatory willingness to support prudent investments through multiple recovery mechanisms.

Life Time (LTH) is expected to post robust comparable club growth in Q1, with slightly better-than-expected revenue and EBITDA, as investors focus on concerns around member growth metrics per center and spending trends in a softer macro environment, UBS Securities said Friday.Ahead of the company's Q1 results on Tuesday, the investment firm said it sees upside to its Q1 EBITDA estimate of $215 million and expects comparable club revenue growth of about 7% to 7.5%.UBS said the key investor debate centers on whether the company can sustain growth in revenue per member and overall club economics amid pressure on consumer spending.The brokerage also noted that Life Time could continue repurchasing stock from sponsors, helping reduce overhang, while keeping leverage below its 2x target.UBS has a buy rating on the stock, with a price target of $43.Price: $26.68, Change: $-0.13, Percent Change: -0.50%
