General Dynamics (GD) Stock Forecast & Price Target
General Dynamics (GD) Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
General Dynamics is experiencing fundamental improvements across its business segments, contributing to a positive outlook for the company’s valuation. The anticipated growth in unspent budget authority, projected to reach $115 billion with the FY26 budget, suggests robust government spending potential that could benefit defense contractors. Additionally, the company's adjusted earnings estimate for 2026 has been raised to $16.93, driven by better margins in the Aerospace segment and enhanced contract performance in Combat systems, indicating a strengthening operational efficiency and revenue generation capacity.
Bears say
General Dynamics faces challenges with indifferent investor sentiment and a neutral consensus, reflecting a lack of enthusiasm in the market regarding the company's prospects. Execution issues in the Aerospace and Marine segments have negatively impacted their backlog to revenue conversion, raising concerns about operational efficiency and financial performance. Furthermore, while there is an increased urgency from the Pentagon for military procurement due to rising global threats, the company's ability to capitalize on this demand remains uncertain, particularly in light of their current operational challenges.
