What the Analysts think about Woodward
Analyst ratings (Buy, Hold, Sell) for Woodward stock.
Analyst projections of the future price of Woodward stock.
Bulls say / Bears say
Woodward’s Q3 sales rose 21% and adjusted EPS rose 43%, with both Aerospace and Industrial contributing. Management raised FY26 adjusted EPS guidance to $9.30–$9.50 and expects roughly 19% Industrial and 23.5% Aerospace margins. (Woodward)
Aerospace revenue has strong forward visibility: firm remaining performance obligations reached $4.1 billion at 30 June, with nearly all expected to convert to revenue within two years. LEAP and GTF repair demand is also holding up, supporting a growing aftermarket stream alongside OEM production. (StockTitan, Aviation Week)
Supply-chain pressure remains a real constraint. Woodward is monitoring five to 10 problematic suppliers and expects castings, forgings and rare-earth metals to become more challenging, while higher inventories are absorbing cash and FY26 free-cash-flow guidance remains unchanged despite the EPS upgrade. (Woodward, Yahoo Finance)
Part of the Industrial segment’s exceptional Q3 performance may not repeat. China on-highway contributed about $40 million of sales and roughly 90 basis points of margin, but Woodward expects little fourth-quarter revenue from that business as it exits the market. (The Motley Fool)
The Santa Clarita-to-Spartanburg production transfer creates execution risk before the new site is fully operational. The transition affects about 400 roles, runs through December 2027, and involves selling some legacy product lines as well as the existing campus. (Woodward)
