CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:We increase our 12-month target price by $4 to $111, or 14.5x our 2027 EPS estimate, above TXT's three-year average forward P/E of 13.2x but still well below peers' average forward P/E of 25.1x. We raise our 2026 EPS estimate by $0.03 to $6.68 and keep 2027E at $7.65. TXT's announcement to separate its Industrial segment (~$3.2B revenue) to become a pure-play aerospace and defense company is transformational. New Textron will have ~$12B in revenue with 100% A&D exposure, anchored by leading positions in business aviation (Textron Aviation), military/commercial rotorcraft (Bell), and defense systems. The $19.2B backlog provides multi-year revenue visibility, with Aviation's $8B backlog up 4x from pre-Covid levels. The MV-75 Cheyenne program represents a significant growth driver as it transitions from development to production, supported by strong DoD funding commitments. We view the separation as strategically sound, enabling enhanced focus, improved margins (expanding 120 bps), and accelerated growth (150 bps higher).
Textron (TXT) is showing a credible step to unlocking value from separating its Industrial segment to become a cleaner aerospace and defense firm, Morgan Stanley said in a note Monday."We see the planned separation as a step toward unlocking value, but key uncertainties remain around structure, timing, and ultimate value realization," the report said.The note also said it is shifting to a sum-of-the-parts valuation to better capture segment value as TXT transitions toward a more focused A&D portfolio."We believe Systems is underappreciated today, and the key debate is whether TXT can earn credit for its unmanned and defense tech exposure," the note added.Morgan Stanley increased its price target to $109 from $92 while keeping its equal weight rating, citing a balanced risk reward.Price: $92.03, Change: $-2.69, Percent Change: -2.84%

CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:TXT reported Q1 revenue of $3.7B (+12% Y/Y, 5.4% above consensus) with adjusted EPS of $1.45 (+13%, $0.15 beat). Aviation led performance with revenue up 22% to $1.5B and segment profit expanding 26% to $154M, supported by higher jet deliveries (37 vs. 31) and commercial turboprops (35 vs. 30). We view the margin expansion as validation that Aviation is tracking toward the 12%-13% segment profit range as volumes normalize and operational efficiencies take hold. Management maintains full-year Aviation guidance for 9% revenue growth to $6.5B, supported by the $8.0B backlog providing 2026 visibility. The planned Industrial segment separation within 12-18 months will create a pure-play aerospace and defense structure, addressing long-standing investor feedback on the conglomerate valuation discount. The key catalyst remains MV-75's transition from EMD deliveries in 2027 to LRIP in 2028, which should drive Bell margin expansion as production scales toward 40-60 annual aircraft deliveries later this decade.
