Barclays analyst Andrew Lazar maintains $Lamb Weston (LW.US)$ with a buy rating, and maintains the target price at $87.
According to TipRanks data, the analyst has a success rate of 59.2% and a total average return of 5.1% over the past year.
Furthermore, according to the comprehensive report, the opinions of $Lamb Weston (LW.US)$'s main analysts recently are as follows:
There is an increase in pressure on Lamb Weston management as shares have fallen significantly since the start of the year. This sentiment follows the disclosure of a notable investment by an activist investor, which also brings speculation about the company's potential exploration of a sale. It's considered somewhat improbable that there would be considerable interest from any major branded firms. Lamb Weston has substantial exposure to the foodservice sector and typically experiences more variability in its financial performance compared to established packaged food producers, due to the significant influence of both broader economic trends and the variability in the annual potato crop.
Following the disclosure of an activist investor acquiring a 5% stake, there is anticipation of potential discussions regarding strategic alternatives with the company's board. This development is perceived positively, as it may at least intensify the company's commitment to enhancing its performance.

此外，综合报道，$Lamb Weston (LW.US)$近期主要分析师观点如下：
Lamb Weston管理层面临压力增加，自年初股价大幅下跌以来。这种情绪是因披露了一个活跃投资者的重要投资，也引发了关于公司可能探讨出售的猜测。从任何主要品牌公司可能存在相当重要兴趣的角度来看，这被认为是不太可能的。Lamb Weston在餐饮板块有着相当大的暴露，并且与成熟的包装食品生产商相比，其财务表现更加具有变动性，原因是受到更广泛经济趋势和年度马铃薯产量的显著影响的影响。
随着活跃投资者收购公司5%股份的披露，人们期待着与公司董事会就战略替代方案进行潜在讨论。这一进展被视为积极的，因为至少可以增强公司提升绩效的承诺。
