On Tuesday, Jefferies upgraded Vossloh AG (VOS:GR) (OTC: VOSSF) stock, a company specializing in rail infrastructure, from a Hold rating to a Buy rating. The firm also increased its price target for the shares from €47.00 to €57.00.
The revision follows Vossloh's recent Capital Markets Day, where the management outlined long-term targets that indicate high single-digit revenue growth and low double-digit earnings growth by the year 2030.
The positive outlook for Vossloh is attributed to sustainable secular tailwinds in the rail sector, as well as the company's plans for further mergers and acquisitions. Although the current financial estimates do not yet include the potential contributions from Sateba due to ongoing anti-trust discussions, Jefferies has raised its financial projections for Vossloh by 3-4%.
The upgraded price target of €57 reflects a more optimistic view of Vossloh's future performance. According to Jefferies, Vossloh's stock is trading at approximately a 20% discount compared to its peers, which on average trade at a 12% discount. This valuation gap presents a favorable opportunity for investors, as suggested by the firm's revised rating and price target.
Jefferies' analysis indicates that Vossloh's strategic initiatives and growth prospects in the rail industry are key factors in the improved rating. The company's focus on expanding its business through strategic acquisitions and its position in a sector with strong growth drivers are central to this positive assessment.
Investors and market watchers will likely monitor Vossloh's progress towards achieving its long-term targets and the impact of any further mergers and acquisitions on its financial performance. The updated price target from Jefferies serves as a signal of confidence in Vossloh's strategy and market position.
