Movement Alert|Xylem Falls 5.18% in After-Hours Trading, Post-downgrade rebound comes under pressure again

Market Focus11-06

On November 6, Xylem fell 5.18% in After-Hours Trading to $99.03 per share, with turnover of $8.7095 million.

The key catalyst in public information was a fresh cautious analyst action: Argus Research downgraded Xylem to Hold from Buy, adding to the wave of more conservative sell-side views that followed the company’s late-October guidance cut.

Background context shows Xylem reported third-quarter adjusted EPS of $1.44 on revenue of $2.20 billion, both slightly below consensus, and lowered full-year adjusted EPS guidance to $5.40-$5.45 from $5.55-$5.70 while forecasting revenue of $8.95 billion versus market expectations of $9.19 billion. Since then, Barclays downgraded the stock to Equalweight with a $104 target, JPMorgan cut it to Underweight with a $90 target, Redburn lowered its target to $129, and Argus has now also turned more cautious, helping explain why the recent repair in the share price lost momentum.
