General Dynamics price target lowered to $320 from $325 at RBC Capital

RBC Capital lowered the firm’s price target on General Dynamics to $320 from $325 after its Q1 earnings miss but keeps an Outperform rating on the shares. The company’s revenue growth was driven by double-digit growth in Combat Systems, Marine Systems, and Aerospace, but while the management provided cautious comments on Q2 earnings and free cash flow, the set-up into the second half remains “very favorable”, the analyst tells investors in a research note. RBC adds that it continues to see capital allocation as a key catalyst for General Dynamics.
