Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:We adjust our target price to $100 from $115 following Q1 results, valuing shares at 22x our unchanged 2027 EPS outlook of $4.53, near peers' three-year historical forward P/E average. We lift our 2026 EPS view to $4.20 from $4.15. VLTO delivered a solid Q1 beat, with operating EPS of $1.07 rising 12.6% Y/Y and surpassing consensus of $1.01, while core sales grew roughly 2% Y/Y, led by stronger Water Quality revenues (up 4%) offsetting a 1% decline in Product Quality and Innovation. China remained a mixed bag, with divergent performance across segments. Operating margins expanded modestly, rising 10 bps to 25.1%, reflecting bottom-line improvements despite mixed sales performance. FCF was up 19.7%, supporting approximately $1B in capital deployment during the quarter, including $620M for the acquisitions of In-Situ and GlobalVision and $300M in share repurchases. VLTO also initiated a cost optimization program expected to generate annual savings of $65M to $75M by 2028.

Research Alert: Veralto: Full-year 2026 Guidance Lifted Following Q1 Beat

CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:VLTO delivered a Q1 EPS beat of $1.07 vs consensus of $1.01 (up 12.6% Y/Y), with core sales advancing 2% due to Water Quality's 4% growth offsetting Product Quality's 1% decline. Adjusted operating margins expanded 10 bps to 25.1%, reflecting operational leverage despite mixed segment performance. The company deployed approximately $1B in capital, including $620M for strategic acquisitions of In-Situ and GlobalVision and $300M in share repurchases representing 1.3% of outstanding shares. Management raised full-year adjusted EPS guidance to $4.20-$4.28 from prior $4.10-$4.20 range as the core sales outlook strengthens. VLTO initiated a cost optimization program targeting $65M-$75M in annual savings by 2028, while robust FCF of $170M rose 19.7%. We believe the enhanced FCF conversion guidance of ~100% of GAAP net earnings underscores balance sheet flexibility to pursue additional strategic opportunities while delivering shareholder returns.
