For fiscal 2025, analysts expect HII to report an EPS of $14.42, up 3.3% year over year from $13.96 in fiscal 2024. Moreover, in FY2026, the company's EPS is expected to rise 14.2% annually to $16.47.
HII stock has declined 4.8% over the past 52 weeks, underperforming the Industrial Select Sector SPDR Fund's (XLI) 20.6% surge and the S&P 500 Index's ($SPX) 13.6% uptick during the same time frame.
HII shares plunged 1.2% following the release of its Q1 earnings on May 1. The company's total sales and service revenue declined 2.5% year-over-year to $2.7 billion, mainly caused by weak performance across all three of its reportable segments, and fell short of the Wall Street estimates. However, despite a 2.1% year-over-year fall in its adjusted EPS to $3.79, it surpassed the consensus estimates by 30.7%.
Wall Street analysts are moderately bullish about HII's stock, with a "Moderate Buy" rating overall. Among 11 analysts covering the stock, four suggest a 'Strong Buy,' six suggest a 'Hold,' and one recommends a 'Moderate Sell.' HII's average analyst price target of $256 indicates a marginal potential upside from the current levels.
