Research Alert: CFRA Keeps Hold View On Shares Of Mohawk Industries, Inc.

By

-- CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:

We lower our 12-month price target to $109 from $132, 12.5x our 2026 EPS estimate of $8.71. We believe this premium multiple is justified by the long-term pent-up demand opportunity and the company's financial flexibility to navigate near-term energy cost pressures. We model a 30-bp operating margin decline in 2026 due to energy costs, which we expect will negate leverage benefits despite modest revenue growth. Our assumptions yield 2026 EPS of $8.71 (revised from $9.54) and 2027 EPS of $9.85 (revised from $10.89). The primary risk to our thesis is the potential for the current energy shock to extend into 2027, which would further weaken consumer demand and likely require downward revisions to future earnings. For now, we expect continued spending from wealthier consumers and a seesawing but present commercial demand to provide a floor for the business. This balance of near-term risk against long-term recovery potential keeps us on the sidelines, awaiting greater clarity on the macroeconomic environment.
