Susan Maklari, an analyst from Goldman Sachs, has initiated a new Hold rating on Somnigroup International (SGI).
Susan Maklari has given her Hold rating due to a combination of factors, including the strategic initiatives undertaken by Somnigroup International. The company’s recent acquisition of Mattress Firm, valued at approximately $5 billion, is a significant move that could drive future growth. However, the overall demand in the industry remains subdued, which tempers the potential benefits of these initiatives.
Susan also highlights Somnigroup’s focus on reducing its leverage until mid-2026, which indicates a cautious approach to financial management. This focus on deleveraging suggests that the company might delay resuming share repurchases, adding another layer of conservatism to its financial strategy. These factors combined lead to a Hold rating, reflecting a balanced view of potential growth against current market challenges.
