Analyst Ratings

Morgan Stanley Maintains Overweight on RBC Bearings, Raises Price Target to $415

Truist Securities analyst Michael Ciarmoli revised the price forecast on RBC Bearings Incorporated (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RBC#NYSE">RBC</a>) from $375 to $405, while keeping a Buy rating following the fourth quarter FY25 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/rbc/analyst-ratings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">results reported on Friday</a>.
The analyst reported adjusted EPS of $2.83 beating the consensus of $2.70, while sales of $437.7 million <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/05/b45465327/rbc-bearings-incorporated-announces-fiscal-fourth-quarter-and-full-year-2025-results" rel="noreferrer noopener">missed the consensus of $440.3 million</a>.
The company expects first quarter sales of $424 million-$434 million&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/guidance" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">versus&nbsp;street view of $437.11 million</a>.
The analyst modestly increased the FY26 industrial revenue projections, considering the company&#8217;s proven ability to outperform the market, but remain somewhat cautious given the current macroeconomic environment.
Ciarmoli assumes that gross margin expansion of approximately 50-110 basis points in FY26 will be largely driven by the Aerospace &amp; Defense (A&amp;D) segment.
The analyst revised FY26 EPS estimates from $10.96 to $11.26 (versus consensus of $11.18) and sees FY26 EPS of $11.98.
Ciarmoli notes that tariff pressures are expected to have a minimal impact, and management believes they possess the ability to mitigate any headwinds.
RBC Price Action: RBC shares are up 2.09% at $375.85 at publication on Monday.

Insights From Analysts:
Ed Yardeni of Yardeni Research said in his QuickTakes note that Fed Chair Powell &#8220;poked a stick&#8221; at the White House following his speech on Thursday.
Yardeni pointed out that Powell implied that the bond yields might stay elevated as a result of more frequent &#8220;supply shocks,&#8221; like tariffs.
&#8220;Higher real rates may also reflect the possibility that inflation could be more volatile going forward than in the inter-crisis period of the 2010s,&#8221; Powell said in prepared remarks for the Thomas Laubach Research Conference in Washington, D.C.
Yardeni said, &#8220;Sounds like Powell is expecting more frequent bouts of stagflation, which was associated with supply shocks in the past.&#8221;
&#8220;The stock and bond markets didn&#8217;t react much to the speech partly because today&#8217;s batch of indicators were mostly ambiguous about the near-term prospects for stagflation,&#8221; he added.
As the PPI declined in April, Louis Navellier of Navellier &amp; Associates said, &#8220;The PPI demonstrated that despite recent trade chaos, wholesale prices are falling from lackluster economic activity and surplus goods that have been &#8216;dumped&#8217; in the U.S.&#8221;
Meanwhile, commenting on the declining PPI, Jamie Cox, the managing partner at Harris Financial Group, added, &#8220;If you are in the stagflation camp, these data aren't confirming your thesis. While growth is slowing, disinflation remains intact.&#8221;
Speaking about the S&amp;P 500 earnings so far, Navellier said, &#8220;Now that 90% of the companies in the S&amp;P 500 have announced their first quarter results, earnings are running at an 11.2% annual pace, which represents the seventh straight quarter of improving earnings growth.&#8221;

A higher P/E indicates that investors expect the company to perform better in the future, and the stock is probably overvalued, but not necessarily. It also could indicate that investors are willing to pay a higher share price currently, because they expect the company to perform better in the upcoming quarters. This leads investors to also remain optimistic about rising dividends in the future. 
Compared to the aggregate P/E ratio of 25.48 in the Machinery industry, RBC Bearings Inc. has a higher P/E ratio of 45.01. Shareholders might be inclined to think that RBC Bearings Inc. might perform better than its industry group. It's also possible that the stock is overvalued.

In conclusion, the price-to-earnings ratio is a useful metric for analyzing a company's market performance, but it has its limitations. While a lower P/E can indicate that a company is undervalued, it can also suggest that shareholders do not expect future growth. Additionally, the P/E ratio should not be used in isolation, as other factors such as industry trends and business cycles can also impact a company's stock price. Therefore, investors should use the P/E ratio in conjunction with other financial metrics and qualitative analysis to make informed investment decisions.
