Crane Earnings: Solid Revenue Growth in Both Core Segments
Narrow-moat-rated Crane delivered strong second-quarter results, featuring an 18% year-over-year increase in adjusted EPS, from $1.10 to $1.30. We've raised our fair value estimate to $130 per share from $120, which reflects our slightly more optimistic core revenue growth and operating margin assumptions as well as the time value of money.
