Morgan Stanley reiterated an "Underweight" rating on HP (HPQ), raising the price target from $17 to $19, but still signaling a potential decline of over 30% in the stock price.
Morgan Stanley analyst Erik Woodring reiterated an "Underweight" rating on HP (HPQ) and raised his price target from $17 to $19. However, based on HP's closing price of $30.52 on August 28, this new target still implies a downside of over 30%. The firm believes that while HP's third-quarter revenue grew by 12.5% and exceeded expectations, this growth was primarily driven by price increases rather than increased sales. They anticipate that unit volumes will continue to decline by double digits until fiscal year 2027, and that AI PCs will primarily serve as replacements for existing PCs rather than a new demand driver. Furthermore, the printing business faces pressure from shrinking demand and intensifying competition, which is expected to squeeze profit margins.
