What the Analysts think about JMAT
Analyst ratings (Buy, Hold, Sell) for Johnson Matthey Plc stock.
Bulls say / Bears say
Johnson Matthey has agreed to sell its Catalyst Technologies business to Honeywell for £1.8 billion, expecting net proceeds of approximately £1.6 billion, with about 88% of that dedicated to shareholder returns. This highlights disciplined capital allocation and a clear focus on core operations. (Reuters)
The Catalyst Technologies sale achieved a robust 13.3× 2024/25 EBITDA multiple, demonstrating strong market confidence in the quality and growth profile of the business. (FT)
JM’s board anticipates cash conversion to improve from around 20–30% in FY2025, to at least 50% in FY2026, and above 80% in following years, suggesting much stronger free cash flow ahead. (Reuters)
Johnson Matthey missed analysts’ expectations for first-half revenue and underlying profit, weighed down by a decline in global vehicle production and muted PGM trading volumes. (Reuters)
The company will limit capital expenditure in its Hydrogen Technologies division to £5 million per year starting FY2026, restricting growth in a promising green hydrogen market. (Reuters)
Selling Catalyst Technologies, which accounted for 19% of group sales, may lower JM’s participation in sustainable fuel and chemical markets, possibly curbing future diversification and growth. (Reuters)
