FTI Consulting price target lowered to $225 from $275 at Truist

Truist lowered the firm’s price target on FTI Consulting (FCN) to $225 from $275 and keeps a Buy rating on the shares following “weaker” Q4 results.

Despite the “disappointing” outlook, Truist believes FTI can recover from Compass Lexecon defections consistent with past rebounds. The firm cites lower estimates for the diminished price target
