Analyst projections of the future price of Cabot stock.
Bulls say / Bears say
Performance Chemicals is gaining momentum: third-quarter EBIT rose 19% year on year to $68 million, helped by higher volumes in battery materials and fumed metal oxides. (Cabot Corporation)
Cabot is expanding its battery-materials opportunity with a $50 million US Department of Energy grant and about $75 million of its own investment for domestic conductive-additive capacity. The projects target demand from energy storage, AI infrastructure and electrification, though new capacity is expected by the end of 2028. (Cabot Corporation)
Cabot raised the floor of its full-year adjusted EPS guidance and narrowed the range to $6.15–$6.45 from $6.00–$6.50. The improved outlook suggests management expects to deliver through the current operating challenges. (Cabot Corporation)
Reinforcement Materials remains under margin pressure: third-quarter EBIT fell 24% year on year to $97 million, as lower gross profit per tonne from 2026 customer agreements outweighed higher sales volumes. (Cabot Corporation)
Reported earnings were far below adjusted earnings in the third quarter: diluted EPS was $0.12 versus adjusted EPS of $1.67, with charges mainly tied to restructuring and employee-benefit plan settlements. Further restructuring charges and cash outlays make execution and cost control important risks. (Cabot Corporation, Cabot Corporation)
Near-term results remain exposed to cyclical demand and cost swings: Cabot expected a sequential fourth-quarter EBIT decline in Reinforcement Materials because of seasonal weakness and a less favourable regional mix, while energy and raw-material costs remained volatile.
