MSA Safety (MSA) Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
MSA Safety Inc. is positioned for long-term growth due to increasing safety standards, which are expected to drive market share gains attributed to the company's commitment to research and development. The growth in self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) and gas detection equipment is expected to enhance margins, alongside anticipated operational improvements that contribute to higher profitability. Furthermore, MSA has outlined a goal of achieving 25% adjusted operating margins over time, rising from an estimated 22% in 2025, indicating a positive trajectory for financial performance.
Bears say
MSA Safety Inc faces a challenging financial outlook primarily due to several key factors affecting its profitability. The company experiences the highest gross margins in detection products while the margins in industrial personal protective equipment (PPE) are significantly lower, which could negatively impact overall profitability. Additionally, near-term concerns include tough comparisons in self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) sales following an exceptional order, tariff-related headwinds influencing cost of goods sold, and a slowdown in demand driven by weakening employment trends in the industrial PPE sector.
