-- 独立系調査会社CFRAは、に対し、以下の調査レポートを提供しました。CFRAのアナリストは、以下のように見解をまとめています。12ヶ月目標株価を8ドル引き上げ、316ドルとします。これは、2027年度(9月期)EPS予想の22.0倍に相当し、APDの過去3年間の平均予想PER21.7倍とほぼ一致します。2026年度EPS予想を0.13ドル引き上げ13.31ドルに、2027年度EPS予想を0.36ドル引き上げ14.36ドルとします。好調な第2四半期決算(EPSは前年同期比19%増)を受け、経営陣は基幹事業への自信を反映し、2026年度ガイダンスを引き上げましたが、マクロ経済の不確実性については依然として慎重な姿勢を示しています。同社は、特にエレクトロニクスおよび航空宇宙分野における、より収益性の高い従来型の産業ガスプロジェクトに注力する一方、資本規律を最優先事項としており、2026年度の設備投資額は10億ドルから40億ドルに減少する見込みです。エレクトロニクス・スーパーサイクルは大きなビジネスチャンスをもたらしており、アジアのエレクトロニクス顧客向けヘリウムの需要は2030年までに2倍以上に増加すると予想されています。APDのヘリウム供給網は、中東情勢の混乱にもかかわらず、テキサスの貯蔵施設を活用することで、回復力の高さを証明してきました。今回の格下げは、ファンダメンタルズへの懸念というよりも、むしろバリュエーション上の懸念を反映したものです。大規模プロジェクトの不確実性を考慮すると、現在のバリュエーションでは上昇余地は限られていると考えています。

Research Alert: CFRA Keeps Hold Opinion On Shares Of Exxon Mobil Corporation
CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:Our 12-month target of $167, up $1, reflects EV/EBITDA and DCF analyses. We apply an 8.2x multiple of EV to est. 2027 EBITDA - above XOM's historical forward average but below peak levels - yielding $125 per share. Our DCF model, using medium-term free cash flow growth of 5.6% per year, terminal growth of 2.5%, discounted at a WACC of 5.9%, yields $209 per share. We cut our 2026 EPS estimate by $1.43 to $9.21 and 2027's by $0.66 to $8.07. XOM's upstream production fell 8.2% sequentially in Q1, notably in Asia, where liquids production was down 21% and natural gas production was down 31%. Some of that decline is due to damage to Qatar LNG installations that have been damaged and are likely to take three to five years to restore to pre-war condition. Absent those issues as well as Winter Storm Fern, XOM noted that its upstream production would have grown 8% in Q1. We see ongoing strength in downstream margins, but the main catalysts should be volume recovery in Asia and crude oil prices.
Research Alert: CFRA Reiterates Buy Rating On Shares Of Crane Company
CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:We lift our 12-month target to $235 from $220 following CR's Q1 earnings print, valuing shares at 30x our 2027 EPS outlook of $7.85 (in line with previous forecast; 2026 EPS estimate revised to $6.85 from $6.70). We continue to see upside in shares as OEM sales pick up, along with improving aircraft production rates and as CR leverages its solid balance sheet to acquire and integrate attractive M&A targets (leverage ratio ~1.4x). The Aerospace continued to see strong order flows, with core backlog rising 14% Y/Y as a direct result. Commercial aftermarket sales were a point of concern in Q1 given the spike in oil prices, though we believe growth will eventually reaccelerate in this market given still-elevated utilization rates of aging fleets. Growth in Process Flow Tech was muted in Q1, though organic orders were encouraging as growth markets (pharma, cyro, power generation) support overall demand. We reiterate our Buy opinion on CR shares.
