Stanley Black & Decker, widely known as
SWK, has been in the limelight for several reasons. The company had a resilient financial performance, beating quarterly profit estimates and counterparts on various trading days. With robust quarterly earnings, the tool giant has been viewed as a valuable momentum and dividend aristocrat pick by many financial advisors.
Goldman Sachs declared SWK as a firm with high consensus
Return On Equity (ROE). While the whispers of a partnership with Whisper Aero raised interest, the sale of the Attachment Tools Business to Epiroc AB marked a significant ownership transition. The company has also seen significant stock fluctuations, with some days outperforming competitors, while on others it underperformed despite daily gains. However, it stands as a top value stock for the long-term according to commentators. SWK's Q1 and Q2 earnings and revenues topped estimates, yet their Q2 results showed revenues down Y/Y. Strategic shifts, potential growth concerns, and the appointment of a new Chief Human Resources Officer also highlight their recent news. Their FY2024 guidance upgrade shows further growth prospects. Nonetheless, ending 'woke' policies brings a controversial touch to their corporate persona.
