What the Analysts think about Halma
Analyst ratings (Buy, Hold, Sell) for Halma stock.
Bulls say / Bears say
Halma’s $140 million purchase of CenTrak Inc broadens its medical asset-tracking presence in the US, is expected to enhance earnings immediately, and further bolsters its Medical segment (Reuters).
First-half revenues exceeded £1 billion with record adjusted operating profit over £200 million, propelled by double-digit growth in safety and environmental segments, while the company maintained its full-year targets (FT).
New CFO Carole Cran's purchase of £213,000 in Halma shares in January reflects management’s strong confidence in growth prospects and the company’s financial stability (FT).
Shares are trading at around 29 times forward earnings, close to multi-year highs, which limits valuation upside and increases risk if the market corrects (FT).
The Healthcare segment had a subdued first half, with underlying organic revenue remaining flat due to OEM destocking and cautious budgets among providers, signaling possible challenges for the Medical division (FT).
Halma completed seven acquisitions this year totaling £158 million; if expected synergies take time to materialize, the rapid deal pace could stretch integration resources and potentially reduce returns (FT).
