Research Alert: CFRA Reiterates Strong Buy Opinion On Shares Of Aptiv Inc.
May 5, 2026 9:20 AM

12:15 PM EDT, 05/05/2026 (MT Newswires) -- CFRA, an independent research provider, has provided MT Newswires with the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:

We lower our 12-month price target to $80 from $110, based on a 2027 P/E of 12.0x, a justified discount to APTV's 10-year forward P/E multiple of 23.6x. After adjusting our estimates for the recent Versigent spin-off, we lower our adjusted EPS estimates to $6.25 from $8.60 for '26 and to $6.65 from $9.30 for '27. We are maintaining our Strong Buy opinion on the shares, as the remaining company is a higher-margin business following the spin-off of the former Electrical Distribution Systems (EDS) segment. EDS generated much lower margins than the rest of Aptiv ( APTV ) (an adjusted operating margin of 7.6% vs. 12.1% for the consolidated company in 2025). While APTV maintained prior full-year guidance, we think the guidance will prove conservative after a much better-than-expected Q1, and the stock remains one of our top picks in the auto parts and equipment sub-industry. We continue to like APTV's history of conservative guidance, strong execution, solid new business backlog, and aggressive share repurchases.
