Wedbush表示,Voyager Technologies已做好充分準備,迎接太空和國防領域日益增長的需求,該公司將於第一季業績公佈。

-- Wedbush週五表示,Voyager Technologies (VOYG) 憑藉其穩健的商業模式,在市場波動中保持韌性,因此在即將發布第一財季財報之際,有望從航太和國防市場不斷增長的需求中獲益。 報告指出,Voyager在導引、導航與控制、數位系統、安全通訊以及人工智慧驅動的情報、監視與偵察等領域的業務組合,應能隨著時間的推移,尤其是在地緣政治緊張局勢加劇的情況下,逐步贏得更多訂單。 報告也指出,儘管需求強勁,且2025財年毛利率達到18%(長期目標為30%至35%),但這家航空航太公司的核心「國防」和「航太服務業務」仍被「低估」。此外,收購Estes Energetics將鞏固其在與美國國防優先事項相關的飛彈供應鏈中的地位。 Voyager公司定位於“國防現代化與商業航太基礎設施的交匯點”,具備近地軌道基礎設施、推進系統和國防級資料處理能力。 Wedbush表示,美國不斷增長的國防開支可能帶來更多機遇,而該公司近期獲得美國國家航空暨太空總署(NASA)的訂單,將在2028年前執行第七次私人太空人前往國際太空站的任務,這進一步推動了航太營運私有化的趨勢。 Wedbush維持對Voyager Technologies的「跑贏大盤」評級和46美元的目標價,同時調整了預測,以反映該公司下半年業績將更加突出,因為其專案儲備將轉化為實際收入成長。

Research Alert: CFRA Keeps Hold Opinion On Shares Of Otis Worldwide Corporation

CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:We cut our 12-month target to $90 from $100 following Q1 earnings, valuing OTIS shares at 19.6x our 2027 EPS outlook of $4.58 (down from $4.70; 2026 EPS view updated to $4.18 from $4.25), a modest discount to industrial machinery peers' and OTIS's five-year forward multiple average given unclear timing of ongoing margin headwinds. Service margins were disappointing in Q1 (contracting 160 bps to 23%) amid higher labor and material costs that came in above pricing. Weakness in China has yet to stabilize, though as noted in the past, this represents a shrinking area of OTIS's portfolio and will have a more limited effect going forward. Overall, the latest quarter was more of the same (China weakness/New Equipment decline), though with the added concern of margin quality being pressured within Service - the core profit driver for OTIS overall. While efforts to shore up profitability are underway, we see timing of recovery being uncertain.

The strikes, which targeted Hezbollah, resulted in four casualties and facility damage in Southern Lebanon.Back at home, Rabigh Refining and Petrochemical (SASE:2380), d/b/a Petro Rabigh, and Thob Al Aseel (SASE:4012) posted their financial results for the three months ended March 31. Petro Rabigh emerged from a loss in the first quarter, while Thob Al Aseel logged a higher net profit and revenue."The reason for net profit reported during the current quarter compared to a net loss recorded in the same quarter of last year was primarily attributable to improved product margins resulting from stronger refined product pricing and higher sales volumes," Petro Rabigh said in its report.Petro Rabigh rose 10% at closing, while Thob Al Aseel ticked down 1.59%.Meanwhile, the local calendar will be mostly empty except for the kingdom's preliminary figures for its GDP growth rate for the first quarter and the M3 money supply and private bank lending data for March on Thursday.

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.
