Battalion Oil Q4 Adj EPS $(0.04) Up From $(1.02) YoY

Detroit automakers are attempting to reassure their employees as they work to mitigate challenges posed by President Donald Trump&#8217;s sweeping 25% tariffs on imported vehicles and auto parts set to go<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44560524/auto-stocks-skid-after-trump-shrugs-off-higher-prices-should-you-buy-the-dip"> into effect on Thursday.&nbsp;</a>
What To Know: The Detroit Free Press said it <a href="https://www.freep.com/story/money/cars/ford/2025/03/30/gm-ford-leaders-assure-employees-companies-future-amid-auto-tariffs/82721842007/">obtained</a> internal memos dated March 27 from both General Motors Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GM#NYSE">GM</a>) and Ford Motor Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/F#NYSE">F</a>).
Ford CEO Jim Farley told employees in the memo that the company is still examining <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/03/44517885/trump-slaps-25-tariffs-on-autos-what-it-means-for-your-next-car-purchase">potential impacts </a>from the tariffs, which it expects to be &#8220;likely to be significant."

&#8220;While Ford supports the president's vision of building a stronger auto industry and manufacturing base in the United States, the situation is dynamic and the impacts of the tariffs are likely to be significant across our industry — affecting automakers, suppliers, dealers and customers,&#8221; Farley wrote. 
He noted nearly 80% of the vehicles Ford sells in the states are made in the U.S. but, &#8220;this does not mean Ford is immune to the impact of tariffs, which could be meaningful.&#8221;
&#8220;I assure you that our Ford team has been and will continue to engage closely with the Trump administration as well as policymakers in the U.S., Canada, Mexico and other markets to help shape these critical trade and policy issues,&#8221; Farley added. 
The Detroit Free Press also reported that it obtained an unsigned internal memo from General Motors which noted the tariffs will have an impact on the company's manufacturing operations and supply chain, though it did not give exact figures or estimates. 
The memo did say GM leadership is planning to keep the company &#8220;nimble based on any tariffs announced by the U.S. administration,&#8221; and the company supports a strong U.S.-based auto industry. 
It also encouraged employees to focus on their work and on managing costs.&nbsp;
&#8220;We are in a strong position to navigate this dynamic situation and will continue to deliver for our customers, employees, and communities. Each of us can contribute by staying focused and delivering on plans for this year, maintaining a disciplined approach and managing discretionary costs,&#8221; the GM memo reads.&nbsp;
What Else: President Trump on Saturday expressed <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/03/44552465/trump-unfazed-by-potential-auto-price-hikes-amid-new-tariffs-i-couldnt-care-less">his anticipation </a>for price increases in response to the tariffs on auto imports and reaffirmed his decision to raise tariffs in an effort to boost American manufacturing.
"I couldn't care less if they raise prices, because people are going to start buying American-made cars," Trump stated in an interview <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/donald-trump/trump-says-couldnt-care-less-automakers-raise-prices-tariffs-rcna198731">with</a> NBC News.&nbsp;
GM, F Price Action: General Motors shares ended Monday's session 0.75% higher at $47.03 and Ford shares closed 3.19% higher at $10.03, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/?gspk=YWRhbWVja2VydDUzMzY&amp;gsxid=zBMR4PKmcgBw">Benzinga Pro</a>.

The Analyst Verdict: Palo Alto Networks In The Eyes Of 22 Experts

In the current session, Watts Water Technologies Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WTS#NYSE">WTS</a>) is trading at $203.92, after a 0.03% decrease. Over the past month, the stock decreased by 0.33%, and in the past year, by 1.03%. With performance like this, long-term shareholders are more likely to start looking into the company's price-to-earnings ratio.

<h3>Comparing Watts Water Technologies P/E Against Its Peers</h3>
The P/E ratio measures the current share price to the company's EPS. It is used by long-term investors to analyze the company's current performance against it's past earnings, historical data and aggregate market data for the industry or the indices, such as S&amp;P 500. A higher P/E indicates that investors expect the company to perform better in the future, and the stock is probably overvalued, but not necessarily. It also could indicate that investors are willing to pay a higher share price currently, because they expect the company to perform better in the upcoming quarters. This leads investors to also remain optimistic about rising dividends in the future. 
Watts Water Technologies has a lower P/E than the aggregate P/E of 27.5 of the Machinery industry. Ideally, one might believe that the stock might perform worse than its peers, but it's also probable that the stock is undervalued.

In summary, while the price-to-earnings ratio is a valuable tool for investors to evaluate a company's market performance, it should be used with caution. A low P/E ratio can be an indication of undervaluation, but it can also suggest weak growth prospects or financial instability. Moreover, the P/E ratio is just one of many metrics that investors should consider when making investment decisions, and it should be evaluated alongside other financial ratios, industry trends, and qualitative factors. By taking a comprehensive approach to analyzing a company's financial health, investors can make well-informed decisions that are more likely to lead to successful outcomes.
