研究快訊:CFRA重申對Aptargroup, Inc.股票的強烈買進評等。

By

-- 獨立研究機構CFRA向提供了以下研究報告。 CFRA分析師的觀點摘要如下:我們維持12個月目標價為149美元,相當於2026年每股盈餘預期的26.8倍,高於其三年平均預期本益比26.5倍。我們將2026年每股收益預期下調0.12美元至5.56美元,並將2027年每股收益預期下修0.15美元至6.40美元。注射劑業務持續印證了我們的投資邏輯,第一季年增20%,管理層正積極努力提升產能,以支持該部門的進一步擴張。我們注意到,由於急診醫學業務需要處理先前的庫存,預計2026年上半年將面臨6,500萬美元的庫存壓力,導致第一季核心銷售額持平,毛利率下降。管理階層對公司製藥業務的成長充滿信心,認為其成長將超越GLP-1,拓展至全身性鼻腔給藥和肺部生物製劑領域。美容業務板塊的利潤率疲軟和不利的產品組合是暫時的,我們預計利潤率將在2026年下半年恢復正常。我們仍然相信ATR有望在生物製劑市場實現顯著成長。由於中東地區的不確定性導致供應鏈緊張,ATR可能面臨更高的原料成本。

Australian Services Sector Edges Back into Growth Amid Inflation Pressures, Weak Demand

Australian services activity edged back into expansion in April as firms increased hiring and output, but persistent inflation driven by higher fuel costs linked to Middle East tensions continued to weigh on new orders and keep business sentiment subdued, according to a monthly survey by S&P Global released Tuesday.The S&P Global Australia Services PMI Business Activity Index rose to 50.7 in April from 46.3 in March, signaling a return to slight expansion after a brief contraction.Rising staffing levels helped firms expand activity despite falling orders driven by higher Middle East war-related fuel costs, with growth limited to information and communication and consumer services, while other sectors declined, per the survey.Business activity returned to growth in April, but new orders fell for a second consecutive month at a slightly faster pace as the Middle East conflict weighed on demand, even though export orders rebounded after a sharp decline the previous month.Higher fuel prices pushed up input costs and accelerated inflation to its fastest pace since August 2022, with over 43% of firms reporting increases and the transport and storage sector recording the sharpest rises in both input and selling prices.Output prices in Australia's service sector rose rapidly as fuel costs were passed through to customers, marking the fastest inflation since January 2023, while employment continued to expand for the sixteenth consecutive month at a solid pace, the survey said.Business expansion plans lifted the 12-month outlook despite subdued sentiment, while rising employment and weaker new orders led firms to clear backlogs for a second month at the fastest pace since November 2024.The Composite Output Index rose to 50.4 in April from 46.6 in March, moving back above the 50 no-change mark and indicating a slight recovery in business activity after the previous month's decline.Output rose in April due to services growth while manufacturing fell, as new orders declined amid strong inflation, and input and output prices increased at their fastest pace since 2022.Staffing levels increased strongly, exceeding the rise seen in March, while business sentiment declined further to its lowest point in 22 months, the survey added.
