Jefferies analyst Jonathan Matuszewski maintains $Lowe's Companies (LOW.US)$ with a buy rating, and adjusts the target price from $274 to $301.
According to TipRanks data, the analyst has a success rate of 53.4% and a total average return of 6.5% over the past year.
Furthermore, according to the comprehensive report, the opinions of $Lowe's Companies (LOW.US)$'s main analysts recently are as follows:
Following Lowe's mixed third quarter performance, where sales gains were attributed to hurricanes with a modest improvement in the base business, costs to both gross margin and SG&A had an adverse effect on EBIT. The analysts now project minimal changes going forward, looking for further evidence of sales improvement in FY25 that would facilitate operating leverage and EPS recovery, which they believe is crucial for the stock moving forward.
Despite showing some improvement sequentially in DIY sectors and reporting a high single-digit percentage comp, Lowe's results didn't meet investor expectations, resulting in share prices dropping by 3%-4%. This was even as the top-line outlook improved, though profitability forecasts were somewhat reduced. Long-term industry drivers remain solid, with considerable attention turning towards the December Analyst Day for revised medium-term guidance.

富瑞集团分析师Jonathan Matuszewski维持$劳氏 (LOW.US)$买入评级，并将目标价从274美元上调至301美元。
根据TipRanks数据显示，该分析师近一年总胜率为53.4%，总平均回报率为6.5%。
此外，综合报道，$劳氏 (LOW.US)$近期主要分析师观点如下：
在Lowe的第三季度表现不佳后，销售增长被归因于飓风，基础业务略有改善，但毛利率和销售、管理及一般管理支出均对EBIt产生了不利影响。分析师们现在预测未来将产生最小的变化，希望在2025财年看到进一步的销售改善证据，这将有助于提高运营杠杆作用和EPS恢复，他们认为这对股票的未来至关重要。
尽管DIY领域逐步改善并报告了高个位数的同比增长，Lowe的业绩却未达到投资者的期望，导致股价下跌了3%-4%。尽管营业总收入前景有所改善，但盈利预测有所减少。长期的行业动因仍然稳健，大量关注开始转向12月份的分析师日，期待修订后的中期指引。
