# Research Alert: CFRA Maintains Hold Opinion On Owens Corning With A $136 Target Price

03:30 PM EDT, 05/07/2026 (MT Newswires) -- CFRA, an independent research provider, has provided MT Newswires with the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:

We maintain our target price of $136. Our target is an average of a forward P/E of 8.5x our 2027 EPS view of $12.72 ($108) and our DCF model, using a terminal growth rate of 2.5%, WACC of 7.1%, and 10-year FCFF CAGR of 7.7% ($164). Q1 was particularly weak across all segments, with revenues down 10% and EBITDA down 35%. Margins also compressed 600 basis points, however looking through the weakness, Q2 margins are expected to improve to the 20-22% range ($2.6B-$2.7B). This in combination with the glass reinforcements sale ($280M in cash) being completed may be why shares are responding positively in pre-market trading.
