Evercore ISI Upgrades Juniper Networks (JNPR) to Outperform

(Updated - March 30, 2023 6:00 AM EDT)

Evercore ISI analyst Amit Daryanani upgraded Juniper Networks (NYSE: JNPR) from In Line to Outperform with a price target of $38.00 (from $34.00).

The analyst ocmments "Net/net: While macro remains challenging JNPR should see top-line stability driven by healthy backlog ($2.0B+) and Mist/Enterprise ramps. The bigger upside lever should be expanding GM/EBIT margins through CY23 and beyond that could peg EPS run-rate at $3.00+ in CY24. Upgrade to Outperform and taking target to $38 (~15x our CY24 EPS). BULL Case to $45 with downside to $28 making this an attractive mid-cap value name to own."
