Thein increased their price target on United Rentals after after hosting meetings with management and speaking to rental industry contacts.
The information obtained was positive, the analyst reported, because "robust contractor backlogs and secular demand tailwinds are expected to support rental revenue growth in FY 2024, although at a more modest rate and with more narrow end market leadership than in recent years."
"More meaningful for United Rentals stock in Citigroup's view, according to Thein, "is the Federal Reserve's recent pivot and sharply lower Treasury yields, which are incrementally more positive for non-residential spending into FY 2025."
