Truist on J.B. Hunt Transport Services (JBHT): 'Revenue Outperformance Overshadowed By Cost Pressures'

Fri, 16 Oct 2026 09:05:45 -0400

Truist Securities analyst Lucas Servera reiterated a Hold rating and $235.00 price target on J.B. Hunt Transport Services (NASDAQ: JBHT).

The analyst commented: "Revenue Outperformance Overshadowed By Cost Pressures; We are updating our estimates while maintaining our $235 PT. We maintain our Hold rating on JBHT following 3Q26, as strong revenue growth and improved freight fundamentals were offset by elevated operating costs and limited margin expansion. While we view the upcoming 2027 Intermodal bid season and Dedicated fleet growth as potential earnings catalysts, we expect margin recovery to be gradual as contractual pricing catches up with labor and other cost inflation.

Stephens analyst Justin Long lowered the price target on J.B. Hunt Transport Services (NASDAQ: JBHT) to $325.00 (from $330.00) while maintaining a Overweight rating.

On the path to where we believe Hunt is headed, we

JPMorgan analyst Brian Ossenbeck lowered the price target on J.B. Hunt Transport Services (NASDAQ: JBHT) to $283.00 (from $287.00) while maintaining a Overweight rating.

The analyst comments "We expect JBHT to modestly underperform following 3Q26 results as key cost buckets remain stickier than expected into 4Q, which was a risk we flagged in our call to avoid JBHT on the print (recap here). The wide discount to truckload is still pulling through record conversion activity, but we think most investors continue to overestimate how quickly JBI margins can improve given the normal cadence of contract rate renewals.

J.B. Hunt Transport Services (JBHT) Reiterated at Market Outperform by Citizens on Q3 Results

Fri, 16 Oct 2026 04:56:03 -0400

Citizens analyst Jeff Kauffman reiterated a Market Outperform rating and $300.00 price target on J.B. Hunt Transport Services (NASDAQ: JBHT).

The analyst commented, "J.B. Hunt Transport (JBHT) reported better-than-expected 3Q26 EPS of $1.82 versus preannounced (lowered) consensus expectations of $1.81.
