Lennox grows revenue about 8% in 2026, with acquisitions adding 4%. It aims for EPS between $23.50 and $25.00 this year. Free cash flow is strong, targeted near $750 million. Capital spending is controlled around $250 million.
EPS fell from $3.63 to $3.35 in Q1 2026, showing pressure on profits. Guidance is soft, risking missing targets. Rising costs or weaker demand could hurt growth and cash flow.
The market prices in about 8% revenue growth and EPS near $24.50 for 2026. Our fair value is about 12% below the current price, reflecting cautious optimism. We see risks in EPS delivery but believe revenue growth and cash flow targets are achievable.
