Globe says Canfor, rivals post earnings next week

The Globe and Mail reports in its Thursday edition that Raymond James's Daryl Swetlishoff moved his Western Forest Products share target to $12 from $10 with an unchanged "market perform" recommendation. The Globe's David Leeder writes in the Eye On Equities column that analysts on average target the shares at $15.50. Mr. Swetlishoff says in a note: "Trees earnings season begins Feb. 10, with our estimates suggesting large lumber producers are well positioned for earnings beats amid an overly bearish consensus stance. Against this backdrop, we highlight Interfor is set to beat by 26 per cent with our Canfor estimate 12 per cent ahead of the Street. In conjunction with our recent note we have previously upgraded lumber levered value plays Canfor and Interfor from 'outperform' to 'strong buy' with West Fraser going to 'outperform' from 'market perform.' Going into the print, while earning beats are welcome, we expect the market to focus on positive guidance as 1Q26 results are on track to return companies to FCF-positive territory. Across our diversified industrials coverage, we expect in-line quarters for 'strong buy' rated Adentra and Doman Building Materials, while we are modestly below the Street on Stella-Jones."
