Darling Ingredients: Jefferies Raises PT to $46, Maintains Buy Rating
In a recent update, Jefferies has initiated coverage on Darling Ingredients Inc. (DAR), raising the price target to $46.00 and maintaining the Buy rating [1]. This marks a 31% upside potential from the current price, reflecting the firm's bullish outlook on the company's growth prospects.
Jefferies expects Darling Ingredients to achieve a 12% revenue compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over fiscal years 2025-2028, driven by robust demand for two-wheelers, industry premiumization, increasing content per vehicle, and expansion into four-wheelers and exports [1]. The research firm also projects a 12% EBITDA CAGR and an 18% earnings per share (EPS) CAGR over the same period, with a focus on deleveraging the company’s balance sheet.
The firm considers Darling Ingredients' valuation of 18 times the FY26 price-to-earnings ratio attractive, given its strong growth outlook. Jefferies also noted that any simplification of the company's group structure could potentially boost valuations further [1].
