Olin (OLN) Stock Forecast & Price Target
Olin (OLN) Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
Olin Corp's third-quarter sales increased by 8% year-over-year to $1.71 billion, driven by significant growth in its Epoxy segment, which surged 23% to $350 million, underscoring the company's strong product diversification. The company has raised its run-rate savings target to a range of $70 million to $90 million, demonstrating an effective cost management strategy that could enhance profitability moving forward. Additionally, Olin anticipates an improvement in average realized caustic soda prices in the fourth quarter, supported by tighter supply conditions, which bodes well for its Chlor Alkali Products and Vinyls segment's revenue potential.
Bears say
Olin Corporation's outlook appears negative primarily due to significant projected earnings reductions stemming from inventory management strategies, which are expected to decrease earnings by approximately $40 million in the fourth quarter. Additionally, commercial sales within the Winchester segment have declined 24% year-over-year, attributed to elevated inventory levels at retail customers and persistently weak consumer demand. The potential for greater-than-expected declines in industrial end markets for caustic soda and risks associated with a prolonged recession in Europe further underscore concerns about future profitability across Olin’s segments.
