Scotts Miracle-Gro (SMG) Stock Forecast & Price Target
Scotts Miracle-Gro (SMG) Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
Scotts Miracle-Gro's financial outlook is bolstered by a significant boost in consumer revenue, attributed to a roughly 50% benefit from shipment timing, establishing a strong base for future growth. The company is expected to continue investing in its consumer business, which is recognized as an advantageous platform, while making strides toward enhancing operational leverage. Additionally, the forecast for fiscal years 2025 through 2027 has been positively adjusted primarily due to improved gross margin performance, indicating strong financial health and potential for sustained profitability.
Bears say
Scotts Miracle-Gro anticipates a 1% decline in revenue for the US consumer segment in FY25, projecting EBITDA at $575 million, which represents a slight decrease. The company's estimates remain below consensus primarily due to unfavorable below-the-line expenses and the normalization of share dilution, which is expected to present an additional $0.07 headwind for FY25. Moreover, key risks impacting the company's outlook include commodity price volatility, broad market weakness, excess leverage, fluctuating weather patterns, and a concentration of customers, which collectively contribute to a deteriorating financial outlook.
