Westinghouse Air (WAB) Gets a Hold Rating from Mizuho Securities


Mizuho Securities analyst Kristine Kubacki maintained a Hold rating on Westinghouse Air (WAB) yesterday. The company’s shares closed yesterday at $73.96.

Kubacki commented:

“We are updating our WAB model after the company announced FY4Q18 earnings and completed the merger with GE Transportation. With the GET merger in the rearview mirror, WAB can focus on integrating the two companies and deleveraging. We continue to believe the acquisition returns WAB back to its roots with a focus on NA freight and has long-term opportunities in terms of content, new products and re-occurring after-market revenues. Our Neutral view is based on what we see as the fair value of the shares.”
