Goldman Sachs raised the firm’s price target on Watts Water to $217 from $193 but keeps a Neutral rating on the shares. The company’s Q4 results topped expectations on all metrics, but the outlook for 2024 suggests a more challenging environment ahead as the management alluded to weakening macro economic conditions, particularly in Europe, to be the headwind to organic volume growth, the analyst tells investors in a research note. Goldman Sachs further cites the company indicating that operating margins will be slightly down to flat in FY24.
