James Hardie Industries' Growth Story Driven by Execution, Oppenheimer Says

James Hardie Industries' (JHX) remains a company-specific growth story driven more by execution than broader housing trends, increasing conviction in its long-term earnings power, Oppenheimer said in a note Wednesday.The company's preliminary fiscal Q1 results boosts bull case, with EBITDA about 10% above consensus and fiber cement volume up mid-teens, supporting the view of fiber cement re-emerging as an organic growth story, according to the note.The investment firm said feedback from over 80 dealers and distributors suggest that James Hardie's TimberTech is a logical replacement for Trex within Boise Cascade's (BCC) decking portfolio.Oppenheimer said a broader Boise Cascade rollout would strengthen the rationale for the Azek acquisition and serve as a repeatable blueprint for additional distributor wins.The firm said it continues to view James Hardie as a "beat-and-raise" story, with a path to $1.8 billion in EBITDA in fiscal 2028, supported by market growth, price, volume, and commercial revenue synergies.Oppenheimer kept an outperform rating on James Hardie Industries, with a price target of $32.Price: $26.19, Change: $-0.71, Percent Change: -2.62%

James Hardie 'Beat-and-Raise' Case Strengthened by Growth Drivers: Oppenheimer Says

James Hardie Industries (JHX) remains a "beat-and-raise" story, with company-specific factors rather than broader market growth expected to drive earnings over the next two years, Oppenheimer said in a report Thursday.The firm said the company's growth should be supported by "organic volume" gains in its siding and trim business, "commercial revenue synergies" from the AZEK acquisition and continued market share gains.Oppenheimer says earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization could reach $1.56 billion in fiscal 2027 in an upside scenario, above the Wall Street estimate of $1.41 billion, and increase to $1.8 billion in fiscal 2028, while strong free cash flow generation is expected to reduce leverage "below 2x.""New product launches," builder wins, the exit of competitor Nichiha from the fiber cement market and stronger-than-expected growth in the decking, railing and accessories segment could further lift results. Additional upside could come from distribution share gains with Boise Cascade (BCC) and other partners, the report said.Oppenheimer has an outperform rating on James Hardie Industries with a price target of $30.Price: $26.83, Change: $+0.52, Percent Change: +2.00%
