Barclays has adjusted its outlook on Adient (ADNT, Financial), lowering the company’s price target from $21 to $13 while maintaining an Equal Weight rating on its shares. This revision comes as part of a broader reduction in estimates within the autos and mobility sector, reflecting anticipated earnings impacts due to persistent tariff pressures.
The firm has also downgraded its industry view for the auto sector to Negative, citing a "highly challenging environment" that complicates the case for near-term investments. Barclays identifies multiple immediate pressures that the sector faces, including earnings challenges, threats to consumer financial health, and uncertainty surrounding investments in automotive technology.
Barclays analysts suggest that the current market valuations have not fully accounted for the ongoing risks associated with tariffs, indicating a disconnection between market expectations and the underlying financial realities facing the industry.
