Boise Cascade (BCC) Stock Forecast & Price Target
Boise Cascade (BCC) Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
Boise Cascade Co is experiencing an optimistic outlook due to an anticipated improvement in plywood prices, which is expected to enhance Q1 realizations for the company. The firm is seeing a positive sales trend in its Wood Products segment, particularly in engineered wood products (EWP), despite a slight decline in EWP prices, indicating resilience amidst varying market conditions. Furthermore, with a robust balance sheet featuring approximately $7 per share in net cash and an attractive valuation following a recent stock pullback, Boise Cascade is well-positioned for future growth.
Bears say
Boise Cascade's stock outlook is negatively impacted by anticipated lower EBITDA margins in the Building Materials Distribution segment, alongside a projected slowdown in demand and volume for early 2025. The company's performance in 4Q24, while solid, reflects the ongoing struggles due to cost pressures from tariff discussions and labor availability, which have left builders hesitant to increase inventory levels. Additionally, a sluggish recovery in U.S. plywood volumes is expected, worsened by modernization downtime at the Oakdale, LA plant, further compounding the challenges facing the company.
