Bernstein Ups Ford (F) Price Target, Cautions on H2 Risks
Ford Motor Company (NYSE:F) recently received an Underperform rating from Bernstein SocGen Group, with a revised price target of $8.30, up from $7. Analyst Daniel Roeska expressed concerns about potential challenges in the second half of 2025 but remained optimistic due to the company’s strong start to the year.
Roeska highlighted Ford’s impressive first-quarter performance and anticipated continued strength in the second quarter as positive signs. However, he also cautioned that production cuts and tariff issues could lead to a decline in the latter half of the year. Despite these challenges, Ford’s efforts to mitigate the impact of tariffs and the solid performance of Ford Credit could help the company navigate through the tough times ahead.
In light of these factors, Bernstein SocGen Group adjusted Ford’s 2026 earnings per share estimate to $1.66, reflecting a 5.8% decrease. While acknowledging Ford’s growth potential, the firm believes that other artificial intelligence (AI) stocks offer greater promise with higher returns and limited downside risk.
