Preformed Line Products: Maintaining Hold Rating Owing To Several Headwinds Reiterated 'Hold' rating on Preformed Line Products (PLPC) due to rising costs, overvalued revenues, and stagnating technicals, despite a 9% share price increase over six months. Fiscal 2025 Q1 earnings showed 5% net sales growth and 20% GAAP profit growth, but higher costs from tariffs and raw materials loom. PLPC's return on capital remains under pressure, with a trailing ROC of 6.86%, as rising costs and tariffs could dampen demand and profitability. seekingalpha.com - 1 week ago
Preformed Line Products Posts Y/Y Earnings & Sales Growth in Q1 PLPC's first-quarter results were driven by strong U.S. communications sales and margin gains despite tariff concerns. zacks.com - 2 weeks ago
Preformed Line Products: A Strong Buy Based On Turnaround And Robust Prospects Preformed Line Products' fortunes rebounded in Q4-2024 and Q1-2025; I expect a 19.91% earnings increase and have a one-year target of $164.71. PLPC's competitive advantages include a strong workforce, unique solutions, vertical integration, emergency resources, and global presence, despite operating in highly competitive markets. PLPC's net margin of 6.25% is slightly above the sector median, but its return on equity lags; I believe it has a medium moat. seekingalpha.com - 2 weeks ago
