Hexcel Corporation’s stock is facing downward pressure due to concerns highlighted by TD Cowen analyst Gautam Khanna. The analyst pointed to excessive inventory levels and production rate constraints for key aircraft models, the A350 and 787, as significant issues. These challenges are exacerbated by supply chain bottlenecks and production delays, which could hinder Hexcel’s growth projections for 2026. As a result, Khanna has lowered the price target to $60, expressing skepticism about the company’s current earnings per share estimates and anticipated sales growth. Despite these hurdles, Khanna considers the situation a timing issue rather than a fundamental problem, given the strong aerospace market and Hexcel’s stable position.
