Lowe's (LOW) Stock Forecast & Price Target
Lowe's (LOW) Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
Lowe's Companies has demonstrated a robust growth trajectory as evidenced by its recent initiatives and market performance, including the launch of a home improvement-focused Marketplace aimed at leveraging customer data for an expanded assortment of third-party products. The continuous increase in home prices, sustaining for 19 months and remaining approximately 50% above pre-pandemic levels, alongside a significant $35 trillion in home equity, creates a favorable environment for home improvement spending and demand. Furthermore, Lowe's is poised for margin expansion through strategic enhancements in talent and processes, coupled with a positive outlook on sales and comparable store performance, particularly in regions benefiting from favorable spring weather conditions.
Bears say
Lowe's Companies is facing headwinds as guidance suggests a decline in comparable sales of approximately 2.0% and an EBIT margin of around 11.8%, highlighting challenges in maintaining profitability. The firm contends with risks stemming from potential interest rate increases, which could negatively impact home affordability and housing turnover, ultimately leading to reduced home improvement activities. Additionally, the expectation of sluggish sales growth into 2025, combined with factors such as rising unemployment, may further depress performance and hinder margin expansion efforts.
