Pentair price target raised to $103 from $101 at RBC Capital

RBC Capital analyst Deane Dray raised the firm’s price target on Pentair to $103 from $101 and keeps an Outperform rating on the shares. The company’s earnings quality was good, and the firm still expects upside in Pool business this year, the analyst tells investors in a research note. RBC further notes that the Pool channel inventory has reset, and Pentair is building inventory ahead of what it expects will be a solid 2Q24 pool-opening season.
