Top Research Reports for Alibaba, NextEra and Texas Instruments
The Zacks Research Daily presents the best research output of our analyst team. Today's Research Daily features new research reports on 12 major stocks, including Alibaba Group Holding Ltd. (BABA - Free Report) , NextEra Energy, Inc. (NEE - Free Report) and Texas Instruments Inc. (TXN - Free Report) . These research reports have been hand-picked from the roughly 70 reports published by our analyst team today.
Alibaba shares have underperformed the Zacks Internet - Commerce industry over the past year (-55.4% vs. -43.0%). The company is facing the rising COVID-19 cases in China which continues to remain a serious headwind. We note that the pandemic-led disruptions are likely to persist as concerns for Alibaba’s domestic businesses.
However, solid momentum across China and International wholesale businesses is benefiting its China and International commerce businesses, respectively. We expect China commerce and international commerce to be up 6.5% and 8.6% in fiscal 2023 year over year, respectively.
Further, strength across the local consumer services, cloud computing business and Cainiao logistics services is contributing well to the top-line growth. Also, well-performing direct sales businesses like Alibaba Health and Freshippo remain tailwinds. Considering these factors, our estimates suggest that the top-line is likely to witness a 2.7% rise in fiscal 2023 from fiscal 2022.
NextEra Energy shares have held up very well relative to the turmoil in the broader market, but they modestly underperformed the Zacks Utility - Electric Power industry over the past year (-10.5% vs. -7.6%). The nature of its business is subject to complex federal, state and other regulations. Unfavorable weather conditions and an increase in supply costs adversely impact earnings as well.
Nevertheless, through the proper execution of organic projects and strategic acquisitions, it is expanding its operations. NextEra Energy currently has a lot of renewable projects in its backlog and the renewable project backlog is rising every quarter, which is aiding the company in cutting emissions.
The merger of Gulf Power and FPL strengthens NextEra Energy’s position in Florida. Improving the Florida economy and FPL’s reliable services are expanding its customer volume every quarter. NextEra Energy has ample liquidity to meet its near-term debt obligations.
Texas Instruments’ shares have declined -16.5% over the past year against the Zacks Semiconductor - General industry’s decline of -20.9%. The company is facing weakness in the personal electronics market and remains a headwind. Further, intensifying market competition and coronavirus related uncertainties are concerns.
However, Texas Instruments is benefiting from a solid rebound in the automotive market. Further, a solid demand environment in the industrial, communication equipment and enterprise systems markets is a major positive. Additionally, solid momentum across the Analog segment owing to robust signal chain and power product lines, is contributing well to the top line.
Also, the robust Embedded Processing segment is contributing well. Notably, solid investments in new growth avenues and competitive advantages remain tailwinds. The company’s portfolio of long-lived products and efficient manufacturing strategies are other positives.
Other noteworthy reports we are featuring today include Honeywell International Inc. and Archer-Daniels-Midland Co.
