Needham ups Alcon target, adds to Conviction List
Needham earlier today raised the firm's price target on Alcon (ALC) to $108 from $103 and kept a Buy rating on the shares. The firm also added the stock to its Conviction List, replacing RxSight (RXST). Alcon's product launch lineup is one of the best it's been since its spin from Novartis, the analyst told investors in a research note. Needham expects the product launches to result in Alcon's revenue growth accelerating throughout 2025, which should drive multiple expansion. The firm made the stock a top pick for 2025. With the stock's valuation meaningfully below Alcon's historical range, risks around currency and commercial investments are baked in, making the risk/reward attractive, contended Needham. Alcon +1.88 (+2.24%) RxSight -0.1 (-0.26%)
