-- 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。IEXの第1四半期決算は、営業利益(EPS)が前年同期比14%増の2.00ドルとなり、市場予想の1.77ドルを0.23ドル上回る好調な結果となりました。また、オーガニック売上高成長率は第4四半期の1%から5%へと加速しました。受注額は過去最高の9億8,800万ドル(10%増)に達し、多様なポートフォリオ全体で需要が拡大しました。ヘルス&サイエンステクノロジー部門が成長の主要因となり、報告売上高は17%、オーガニック売上高は11%の成長を記録しました。さらに、調整後EBITDAマージンは100ベーシスポイント拡大し26.6%となりました。これは、AIを活用したデータセンター向け電源ソリューションの需要と半導体アプリケーションの需要に支えられたものです。経営陣は2026年度通期業績見通しを引き上げ、オーガニック売上高成長率を3~4%(従来予想1~2%)、調整後EPSを8.35~8.55ドル(従来予想8.15~8.35ドル)と予測した。売上総利益率は不利な製品構成により40ベーシスポイント低下し44.9%となったが、80/20戦略の成果により調整後EBITDAマージンは50ベーシスポイント上昇し26%となった。当社の見解では、この見通しの上方修正は、IEXの多様な最終市場における需要環境の改善を反映している。

Werner Enterprises' Pivot to Dedicated Services May Reduce Torque, Morgan Stanley Says
Werner Enterprises' (WERN) move away from one-way truckload toward dedicated fleet services just as the market turns may reduce the company's immediate torque to the truckload cycle, Morgan Stanley said in a note Tuesday.Overall, the investment firm said the company may benefit from the shift as the dedicated business is likely to be a "big share-gainer" in an upcycle, with management lifting its full-year dedicated rate guidance on a "very strong" pipeline.Management said Q1 saw the "strongest" pricing inflection in over 3 years and Q2 guidance indicates a modest upside to consensus, while being consistent with Morgan Stanley estimates, according to the note.While one-way truckload revenue per total mile guidance of 1% to 4% growth in Q2 was a little soft versus market trends, management said this reflects the pivot into dedicated, the firm said.Morgan Stanley said Werner remains somewhat of a show-me story within truckload, given the timing of its pivot, completing the FirstFleet acquisition, and proving it has resolved some of its recent cost issues.Morgan Stanley maintained an overweight rating on the stock and lifted the price target to $47 from $45.Shares of Werner Enterprises rose more than 6% in Wednesday trading.Price: $36.68, Change: $+2.28, Percent Change: +6.63%
