Dauch Corporation Raises Full-Year Guidance After Dowlais Integration

Full-year sales guidance moved to $10.6 billion to $10.8 billion, adjusted EBITDA to $1.36 billion to $1.425 billion, and adjusted free cash flow to $260 million to $325 million.

Barclays reinstates Dauch Corporation with Equal Weight, $8 target after Dowlais deal

Barclays reinstated coverage of Dauch Corporation with an Equal Weight rating and an $8 price target on June 22, following the Dowlais Group acquisition. The firm believes the deal expands Dauch's offerings but raises concerns about its exposure to China and the European Union. Barclays also noted Dauch's key North American internal combustion engine business and its exposure to General Motors and Ram. The company narrowed its full-year sales target to between $10.3 billion and $10.5 billion, from a prior range of $10.3 billion to $10.7 billion, while raising the lower end of its EBITDA guidance to a range of $1.3 billion to $1.425 billion.
