Graco: A Bad Quarter Doesn't Change My Assessment
Graco's Q2 results disappointed, with organic revenue contraction and earnings missing expectations, despite overall revenue growth from acquisitions. Shares remain expensive relative to peers, with slow organic growth and tariff risks weighing on the outlook, justifying my continued 'hold' rating. The company's strong net cash position and not being the priciest among peers prevent a downgrade to 'sell' for now.
