On Friday, RBC Capital adjusted its price expectations for FLSmidth & Co A/S (FLS:DC) (OTC: FLIDF) shares, increasing the target to DKK450.00 from DKK400.00. The firm has reaffirmed its Outperform rating on the stock.
This revision comes as RBC Capital expresses greater confidence in the company's mining division meeting the higher end of its 2026 margin goals.
RBC Capital's revised outlook is based on an anticipated improvement in FLSmidth's earnings before interest, taxes, and amortization (EBITA) for the years 2025 and 2026, with forecasts now 6% and 10% higher, respectively. The firm attributes this positive adjustment to the company's progress in its operations, particularly within its mining sector.
The analyst from RBC Capital noted the company's strategic shift towards aftermarket services and the near completion of its portfolio optimization efforts. These changes are expected to result in a structurally less volatile and more profitable business for FLSmidth.
The upgraded price target of DKK450.00 reflects a belief that even at this level, FLSmidth's shares would trade at a significant discount—27% less than the wider market coverage—according to RBC Capital's valuation models. This suggests a potential undervaluation of FLSmidth's stock at the new price target.
FLSmidth & Co A/S specializes in engineering and providing services to the global cement and minerals industries. The company is listed on the Nasdaq OMX Nordic Exchange Copenhagen and also trades over-the-counter in the United States.
