Oppenheimer analyst Ian Zaffino maintained a Buy rating on Enpro Industries (NPO) yesterday and set a price target of $90. The company’s shares closed yesterday at $63.69.
Zaffino said:
“We update our model to reflect management’s announcement to discontinue the production of brake drum friction at its STEMCO heavy-duty truck business. The restructuring will involve the shutdown of production lines that occupy a portion of STEMCO’s owned production facility in Rome, GA. As a result, management expects to record restructuring expense of ~$15.8M in 4Q18, comprising impairment of inventory, equipment and other tangible assets. We adjust our 4Q adjusted EPS estimate to $0.59 from $0.73. Management reaffirmed guidance provided on 10/31/2018 which calls for FY2018 EBITDA of $217M-$220M. Maintain Outperform.”
