Cowen initiates coverage on Woodward (NASDAQ: WWD) with a Market Perform rating and a price target of $48.00, saying the company is entering a transition year.

Analyst Gautam Khanna commented, "Woodward (WWD) is a well-managed industrial hybrid, with a rising mix of Aero profits (59%E). Yet, non-Aero areas face crosscurrents, restraining F16E sales gains to levels below Street, and reducing conviction that F17E's EPS gains will match Aero growth pure plays (BEAV;HXL). We initiate at Market Perform with a $48 PT (15x C16E EPS)."
