IDEX (IEX) Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
IDEX has reported a notable 7% growth in orders, driven by robust performance in markets such as datacenters, municipal water, and semiconductor maintenance, highlighting the strength of its diversified product offerings. Organic revenue growth of 5% exceeded expectations, primarily due to advancements in the Fluid and Metering Technologies (FMT) and Health and Science Technologies (HST) segments, despite challenges in certain international markets. Furthermore, management's strategic portfolio enhancements, particularly within Material Science Solutions, are anticipated to contribute to raising the company's base growth rate from a low single-digit percentage to a mid-single-digit percentage moving forward.
Bears say
IDEX faces challenges reflected in its mixed organic sales and order trends across its segments, leading to a reduced core revenue growth forecast for 2026. Despite a slight improvement in balance sheet metrics, with net leverage decreasing from 1.5x to 1.4x, there are ongoing pressures on operating margins due to flat to declining volume expectations and a less favorable product mix, which is compressing earnings per share (EPS). Additionally, anticipated earnings per share for 2026 are projected at approximately $7.61, indicating potential difficulties in reaching prior revenue targets and overall financial performance.
