Catalysts
- Cost Reductions: Over $70M in annualized savings from facility consolidation and SG&A cuts could boost margins.
- Acquisitions: Recent deals may enhance growth.
- Share Repurchases: A $200M program could support the stock.
- Market Recovery: A rebound in housing/construction demand would benefit UFP.
Assumptions
- 9% EPS growth to 2025 ($7.42), per consensus.
- 3% long-term revenue growth, as forecasted.
- 12% discount rate and 16x P/E reflect UFP’s risk and prospects.
Risks
- Earnings Weakness: Further misses or downgrades (e.g., Wedbush cut 2025 EPS to $7.36 from $7.42).
- Economic Slowdown: Impacts construction demand.
- Competition: Pricing pressure in a cyclical industry.
- Volatility: Beta of 1.45 indicates higher risk.
