HLF: Late Q4 USDA Contract Is Expected To Support Upside

Analysts have lowered their price target on High Liner Foods to C$16 from C$22, pointing to weaker than expected Q3 results and more conservative near term volume and revenue assumptions, even as a potential new USDA contract offers some offset. Analyst Commentary Bullish Takeaways Bullish analysts highlight that the new C$16 price target still sits meaningfully above the current trading price implied by the prior C$22 target cut, which they see as leaving some room if execution stabilizes.
