Jefferies downgraded General Dynamics (GD) to Hold from Buy with a price target of $300, down from $345. The firm lowered its 2024 EPS view by 2% to $13.50 and 2025 EPS by 3% to $15.15, or 3% and 5% below consensus, respectively, to reflect the persistent delay of G700 deliveries. The firm cites Gulfstream for moving to 5% below consensus on EPS in 2025, but adds that Marine unit inefficiencies are “here to stay” and argues that the Technologies group is “overindexed” to “looming funding pressure under DOGE.”
