Brunswick: Rating Downgrade On Poor Fundamentals And Macro Conditions
I am downgrading Brunswick Corporation stock to a sell due to deteriorating fundamentals, worsening macro conditions, and significant tariff risks impacting earnings. BC's 1Q25 results showed a 10.5% y/y decline in net sales, severe margin compression, and lowered FY25 guidance, indicating management's concerns. Tariffs could add $100-$125 million in costs, with mitigation measures uncertain, posing a high risk of BC missing its updated guidance.
