-- Wedbush Securities週四發布的一份報告稱，隨著人工智慧驅動的基礎設施需求、日益增長的網路風險、產品升級、供應商整合以及銷售勢頭的改善，Fortinet (FTNT) 有望實現更強勁的增長，其營收和帳單收入前景也因此得到支撐。 報告指出，Fortinet第一季帳單收入成長31%至20.9億美元，超越華爾街預期，主要得益於安全營運和營運技術安全的強勁表現。 Wedbush表示，營收成長20%，主要得益於大型客戶升級到更高效能的系統以處理人工智慧相關的工作負載。 Wedbush稱，由於執行力強勁且成本控制得當，Fortinet的營業利潤率和每股盈餘均超出預期。報告也指出，由於網路威脅、資料安全需求和成本壓力促使客戶轉向更廣泛的網路平台，Fortinet上調了其2026年營收和帳單收入預期。 Wedbush將Fortinet股票的目標價從90美元上調至125美元，並維持「跑贏大盤」評級，理由是其對該公司成長復甦更有信心。

CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:We cut our target by $33 to $317, 24x our 2026 EPS estimate and in line with the shares' ten-year average forward multiple. We lower our 2026 EPS view to $13.21 from $13.44 and 2027's to $14.11 from $14.27. We upgrade MCD from Hold to Buy. Shares trade at a 12% discount to their ten-year forward average, creating an attractive entry point despite near-term margin headwinds from restaurant operating costs, particularly beef costs. We expect margin normalization as traffic gains scale and value messaging matures. Q1 results outperformed on total revenue, global comps, and adjusted EPS, with developed market comps of +3.9%, improving 490 bps sequentially, and developing markets maintaining momentum at +3.4%. In our view, results suggest value positioning is resonating globally and driving traffic recovery. MCD's category expansion into chicken and beverages provides incremental growth optionality, while >80% free cash flow conversion supports continued investment in restaurant development and shareholder returns.
CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:We maintain our 12-month target price at $19, which is 16.5x our 2027 EPS view of $1.15, a discount to the trading multiple of 18.1x since going public in 2023. We think this multiple is justified given the litigation overhang and limited visibility into KVUE's standalone performance (the company is no longer providing forward-looking guidance and hosting an analyst call) due to the pending acquisition by Kimberly-Clark (KMB), expected to close during 2H 2026. We increase our 2026 EPS estimate to $1.15 from $1.10 following this morning's Q1 earnings release. We maintain our 2027 EPS estimate at $1.15. Kenvue delivered a solid first quarter that demonstrated continued operational momentum. Net sales increased to $3,909M (+4.5% Y/Y) with organic growth of 0.7%. The performance suggests management's operational initiatives are gaining traction as the company approaches the transaction close. The transaction received shareholder approval in January 2026, and regulatory approvals are progressing.
