-- 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。第1四半期決算発表後、目標株価を166ドルから210ドルに引き上げます。これは、2026年のEBITDA予想にEV/EBITDA倍率10.5倍を適用したもので、PKGの過去5年間の平均9.73倍を上回ります。2026年のEPS予想は11.04ドルから10.32ドルに引き下げ、2027年のEPS予想は11.72ドルで据え置きます。PKGは2026年第1四半期決算で、調整後EPSが予想を上回る2.40ドルとなり、業績はまちまちでした。しかし、同四半期の純売上高は24億ドルで、市場予想を下回りました。既存包装事業の好調な業績は、新たに買収したGreif事業の四半期損失と、運賃高騰による大きな逆風を相殺するのに役立ちました。当四半期における段ボール製品の需要は堅調で、当社の既存事業では1日あたりの出荷量が過去最高を記録しました。これは好ましい兆候と捉えています。今後、PKGは第2四半期も引き続き堅調な需要が見込まれると予想しており、発表済みの価格引き上げによる効果の大部分は第3四半期に実現すると見込んでいます。

Research Alert: CFRA Maintains Hold Rating On Shares Of United Rentals Inc.
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 price to $1,100 from $950 following a strong first quarter, valuing shares at 20.5x our 2027 EPS outlook of $54.28 (in line with previous estimate; 2026 EPS also in line). We believe a higher multiple is justified given URI's firming market leadership within an expanding rental equipment industry. A robust Q1 beat enabled URI to raise its full-year revenue guidance to $16.9B-$17.4B and adjusted EBITDA to $7.625B-$7.875B, citing momentum heading into a busy season. With leverage well below historical levels, we believe accretive M&A deals could serve as a potential catalyst for additional guidance increases. Margin compression has been a sticky issue for URI, but Q1 indicated that pricing may have turned around and that headwinds are starting to ease as quarterly results begin to lap when tariff-related inflation began to pick-up. We remain cautious on margins, though are encouraged by signs of stabilization. New project activity is likely supporting pricing trends, in our view.
