Wabtec (WAB) is in the limelight following a string of significant achievements and developments. The company strengthened its position by securing multiple contract wins, including a
$405-Million Locomotive Deal with
Kazakhstan Temir Zholy, a
$277-Million Locomotive Order from
SimFer, and a significant
Brake System Order from
Siemens. Wabtec enhanced its transit business capabilities via strategic acquisitions, where
Fanox & Kompozitum Buyout is expected to bring substantial benefits. Furthermore, the company has also gained attention for its continuous efforts to improve air quality, backed by its
Green Friction Technology that has commenced commercial operations in Paris. Wabtec’s strong Q3 2024 financial results and raised annual profit forecast also underline its solid growth trajectory. However, the company faced some challenges as its stock underperformed on certain days. It's worth noting that Wabtec has made grand strides in its
cybersecurity fortification with recent certifications and launched the next-gen Railcar Mover, the
Commander NXT. Despite certain swings, it's apparent that investors show strong faith in Wabtec, reflected by its 52-Week High, raised price targets by KeyBanc and Stephens, and a rise since the last earnings report.
