Louisiana-Pacific (LPX) Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
Louisiana-Pacific's stock outlook is positively influenced by a standout performance in its Siding portfolio, particularly with the ExpertFinish product, which has demonstrated a 24% year-over-year sales growth and continues to gain market share among repair and remodel contractors. The company is expected to benefit from additional volume growth of 10% to 20% in ExpertFinish, coupled with anticipated price increases that could contribute a significant 100 to 200 basis points to overall revenue growth in the Siding segment by 2026. Furthermore, stable pricing trends in oriented strand board (OSB), alongside strategic market penetration initiatives, position Louisiana-Pacific favorably for sustained above-market growth in both Siding and engineered wood products.
Bears say
The financial outlook for Louisiana-Pacific's stock is negatively impacted by concerns surrounding the North American housing market, with expectations of continued challenging conditions for oriented strand board (OSB) pricing. Recent data indicate that OSB composite pricing has declined, with significant pressure noted in various regions, which could lead to reduced revenues and operating results amid potential economic downturns. Additionally, a downward revision of the full-year siding sales outlook from +9% to +8% y/y reflects the ongoing volatility and uncertainty in building material demand, underscoring a broader caution regarding the company's performance.
