Barclays analyst Eric Morgan maintains $Knight-Swift Transportation (KNX.US)$ with a buy rating, and maintains the target price at $62.
According to TipRanks data, the analyst has a success rate of 57.6% and a total average return of 29.0% over the past year.
Furthermore, according to the comprehensive report, the opinions of $Knight-Swift Transportation (KNX.US)$'s main analysts recently are as follows:
Knight-Swift is perceived as a beneficiary during the early cycle. The company's ability to demonstrate operating leverage in light of improving seasonality has been noted. While the short-term and 2024 earnings projections remain intact, expectations for 2025 earnings have been adjusted.
While the company's third-quarter miss and first-quarter guidance slightly underperformed consensus, which might initially appear unfavorable, considering the third-quarter disruptions and the projections not factoring in a cyclical shift, the results should at least meet, if not exceed, expectations. The market could find reassurance in the fact that there was no revision to guidance and might even be buoyed by management's positive commentary regarding the fourth quarter and full-year prospects in relation to the cycle.
Knight-Swift met expectations in the third quarter and maintained fourth-quarter guidance consistent with estimates and consensus expectations. The company is seeing positive contractual rates that help to counterbalance heightened network costs, which suggests that margins are likely to see an improvement following the third quarter.

此外，綜合報道，$Knight-Swift Transportation (KNX.US)$近期主要分析師觀點如下：
在早期週期中，奈特-斯威夫特被視爲受益者。已注意到該公司在季節性改善的情況下表現出運營槓桿作用的能力。儘管短期和2024年的收益預測保持不變，但對2025年收益的預期已經進行了調整。
儘管考慮到第三季度的中斷和預測沒有考慮到週期性變化，該公司第三季度的失誤和第一季度的預期表現略遜於共識，這最初可能顯得不利，但業績至少應達到甚至超過預期。市場可以放心，指導方針沒有修訂，甚至可能會受到管理層對第四季度以及與該週期相關的全年前景的積極評論的推動。
Knight-Swift在第三季度達到了預期，並維持了與預期和共識預期一致的第四季度指引。該公司看到了正的合同利率，這有助於抵消網絡成本的上漲，這表明利潤率可能會在第三季度之後有所改善。
