Investing.com - Stifel initiated coverage on Teledyne Technologies (NYSE: TDY ) with a buy rating on Monday, setting a price target of $626.00.

The research firm based its target price on approximately 20 times its estimate of Teledyne’s fiscal year 2027 EBITDA, discounted back one year. This multiple represents the high end of Teledyne’s trading range over the previous seven years.

Stifel expects "continued solid operations and ongoing momentum" across Teledyne’s portfolio to sustain the company’s multiple. The firm’s analysis suggests confidence in the industrial technology company’s diverse business segments.

The research note outlined several potential downside risks to its investment thesis, including changes to government spending, acquisition sourcing and integration challenges, and contract costs exceeding estimates.

Stifel also identified "failure to improve product offerings through internal development programs" as another risk factor that could impact Teledyne’s performance and valuation going forward.
