Movement Alert|Garmin Falls 3.07% in Regular Trading, JPMorgan Maintains Neutral Rating with Target Near Current Price

Market Focus07-31

On July 31, Garmin declined 3.07% in regular trading, trading at $292.65/share, with turnover of $26.85 million. The pullback follows a sharp 16% single-day rally on July 29 after Q2 earnings significantly exceeded expectations.

On the news front, JPMorgan raised its price target on Garmin from $285 to $295 while maintaining a Neutral rating. With the current stock price at $292.65, the shares are already trading within close proximity of JPMorgan's updated target, implying limited upside from the investment bank's perspective. The average analyst price target stands at $301.20 according to FactSet, with a consensus Hold rating.

The decline reflects profit-taking pressure following the post-earnings surge. Garmin reported Q2 adjusted EPS of $2.81, far exceeding the $2.30 consensus estimate, representing approximately 30% year-over-year growth. The company also raised full-year guidance, projecting revenue of $8.05 billion versus the $8.01 billion estimate, and lifted its gross margin outlook from 58.5% to 59.7%, well above the 58.8% market expectation.
