Analyst Finds It Difficult To Make Numeric Assumptions For Chemours: Here's Why
Portfolio Pulse from Lekha Gupta
BMO Capital Markets analyst John P. McNulty downgraded The Chemours Company (NYSE:CC) to Underperform from Outperform with a new price target of $19, down from $45, citing management changes, delays in filing its 10-K, and financial struggles. Despite these challenges, McNulty notes early signs of recovery in core businesses but finds it high risk to make numeric earnings assumptions currently. Chemours expects FY23 net sales of about $6.0 billion, down from $6.8 billion the previous year.
