KeyBanc Starts Kimball Electronics (KE) at Sector Weight

KeyBanc analyst Brett Fishbin initiates coverage on Kimball Electronics (NASDAQ: KE) with a Sector Weight rating.

The analyst comments: “We believe KE’s strategic pivot toward MedTech end markets could support an improved financial outlook and valuation multiple over time; however, initiate SW based on current visibility/portfolio mix. More specifically: 1) KE is a diversified CDMO with a large legacy presence in Autos/Industrials; 2) we expect Medical to remain accretive to growth, and may incrementally benefit from a PHG return to U.S. market, but view NT Autos visibility as limited NT; 3) a material uptick in margins likely depends on the pace of mix shift; and 4) we think valuation reasonably reflects its financial profile.”
