<h2>The Basics of Analyst Ratings</h2>
<p>Benzinga tracks 150 analyst firms and reports on their stock expectations. Analysts typically arrive at their conclusions by predicting how much money a company will make in the future, usually the upcoming five years, and how risky or predictable that company's revenue streams are.</p>
<p>Analysts attend company conference calls and meetings, research company financial statements, and communicate with insiders to publish their ratings on stocks. Analysts typically rate each stock once per quarter or whenever the company has a major update.</p>
<p>Analysts may enhance their evaluations by incorporating forecasts for metrics like growth estimates, earnings, and revenue, delivering additional guidance to investors. It is vital to acknowledge that, although experts in stocks and sectors, analysts are human and express their opinions when providing insights.</p>

8 Analysts Have This To Say About Huntsman

<p>Egg prices have been all over the news lately, and for good reason. The cost of a dozen eggs hit $4.95 in January, almost double what it was a year earlier at $2.52, according to<a href="https://www.ers.usda.gov/"> </a>the <a href="https://www.bls.gov/charts/consumer-price-index/consumer-price-index-average-price-data.htm">U.S Bureau of Labour Statistics.</a> It's wild to think how something as basic as eggs could suddenly become a luxury item.&nbsp;</p>
<p>The situation has gotten so serious that Agriculture Secretary <strong>Brooke Rollins <a href="https://www.wsj.com/business/the-u-s-plans-to-import-more-eggs-will-that-help-tame-rising-prices-71839968">recently announced</a></strong> that the government is considering temporarily importing eggs to help consumers catch a break. The idea is more of a short-term fix rather than a long-term solution.</p>

</ul>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">What's Really Going On?</h2>
<p><a href="https://www.usda.gov/about-usda/news/press-releases/2025/02/26/usda-invests-1-billion-combat-avian-flu-and-reduce-egg-prices">The approach to fixing the egg shortage</a> isn't just about bringing in more from other countries. There's talk of loosening some regulations that have made it tough for domestic farmers to ramp up production.&nbsp;</p>
<p>On top of that, there's a push to invest more in biosecurity to keep poultry safe from disease. Efforts to rebuild the laying hen population are also in motion, along with research into better vaccines and treatments.&nbsp;</p>
<p>These steps are meant to help stabilize the industry over time, even though the immediate concern is simply getting more eggs onto store shelves.</p>
<p><strong>Trending: ‘Scrolling To UBI' — Deloitte's #1 fastest-growing software company allows users to earn money on their phones. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/mode-mobile-2"><strong>You can invest today for just $0.26/share with a $1000 minimum.</strong></a></strong></p>
<p>One of the biggest factors behind the price spike is the ongoing avian flu outbreak. Since early 2022, over 160 million birds have been culled,<a href="https://www.cdc.gov/flu/avianflu/data-map-commercial.html"> </a>according to <a href="https://www.marketwatch.com/story/heres-why-the-u-s-is-not-working-to-vaccinate-birds-against-avian-flu-b5daa56d">MarketWatch</a>. Fewer hens mean fewer eggs, and that's been a major hit to supply.&nbsp;</p>
<p>At the same time, the <a href="https://www.usnews.com/news/us/articles/2025-02-12/us-eggs-prices-hit-a-record-high-of-4-95-and-are-likely-to-keep-climbing">cost of feed has shot up</a>. Add in inflation, supply chain snags, and rising transportation costs, and it's no wonder eggs are so expensive right now.</p>
<p>Not everyone is convinced that the government's current approach will actually solve the problem. Experts point out that bringing in eggs from other countries might offer quick relief but could also discourage investment in domestic production.&nbsp;</p>
<p>There are also concerns that deregulation will push prices down in the short term but at the expense of <a href="https://www.health.com/food-recalls-2024-more-deaths-11685472">food safety</a>. Simplifying red tape might be of some benefit, but it will do nothing to fix deeper issues like biosecurity risks and structural issues the sector is facing.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The effects of all this are easy to see. Some grocery stores are limiting how many egg cartons customers can buy, and popular restaurant chains like Denny's (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DENN#NASDAQ">DENN</a>) and <strong>Waffle House</strong> have added extra charges to their egg-based dishes to keep up with costs.&nbsp;</p>
<p>In an interesting twist, cage-free eggs—which used to be the pricey option—are now selling for less than regular eggs in some places.</p>
<p>Despite the chaos, there's some hope on the horizon. Rollins remains optimistic, saying, "We see a significant plan with significant <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/startups/25/01/43084861/mark-cubans-29-million-shark-tank-portfolio-from-200k-in-dude-wipes-to-200m-for-beatbox-beverages-im-killing-it">funds</a> moving ahead, and relief is coming right around the corner." Unless the avian flu outbreak eases up and domestic production gets back on track, egg prices could increase by around <a href="https://www.ers.usda.gov/data-products/food-price-outlook/summary-findings">41% in 2025</a>.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Some analysts will also offer forecasts for metrics like growth estimates, earnings, and revenue to provide further guidance on stocks. Investors who use analyst ratings should note that this specialized advice comes from humans and may be subject to error.</p>

<p>On Tuesday, Box reported quarterly <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/03/44126948/box-shares-fall-after-q4-results-weak-q1-guidance" rel="noreferrer noopener">earnings of 42 cents per share</a>, which met the analyst consensus estimate. Quarterly revenue was $280 million (up from $262.87 million a year ago), which beat the analyst consensus estimate of $279.42 million.</p>
<p><strong><em>Also Read: </em></strong><em><a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/media/25/03/44140452/gm-stellantis-supplier-samsung-sdi-weighs-new-us-battery-plant-amid-trumps-ev-policy-shift" rel="noreferrer noopener">GM, Stellantis Supplier Samsung SDI Weighs New US Battery Plant Amid Trump&#8217;s EV Policy Shift</a></em></p>
<p>Box expects first-quarter earnings of 25 cents-26 cents, versus the 43-cent estimate, and revenue of $274 million-$275 million, versus the $279.5 million estimate.</p>
<p>Wall Street firms rerated <strong>Box Inc</strong> (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BOX#NYSE">BOX</a>) after its fourth-quarter report:</p>
<ul>
<li>JP Morgan analyst Pinjalim Bora maintained Box with an Overweight and lowered the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/03/44126948/box-shares-fall-after-q4-results-weak-q1-guidance" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">price target from $38 to $37</a>.</li>
<li>Raymond James analyst Brian Peterson reiterated an Outperform on Box with a price target of $38, down from $40.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>JP Morgan:</strong> Box delivered a good end to the year, with forward-looking metrics coming in ahead of guidance and consensus expectations, driven by a solid bookings cadence in addition to a higher volume of early renewals in the quarter. Specifically, calculated billings grew 7% in CC, marking an acceleration relative to last quarter and landing ahead of guidance of low-single-digits, while RPO grew 14% in CC, steady versus last quarter.</p>
<p>Revenue landed essentially in line despite a higher incremental FX headwind, and adjusted EPS was above. DBNRR of 102% was consistent with the prior two quarters, while gross retention remained at 3% for the eleventh consecutive quarter.</p>
<p>Additionally, Box noted strong momentum around its new Enterprise Advanced SKU, underscored by several deals closing in the fourth quarter even though it was generally available at the very end of the quarter. The company realized a 20-40% ACV uplift with that SKU relative to Enterprise Plus deals.</p>
<p>Looking forward, while Box guided to a billings acceleration in fiscal 2026, the revenue guide marked a deceleration by landing in line with street expectations, and adjusted operating margin guidance came in below as the company looks to make &#8220;methodical&#8221; GTM investments to capitalize on the AI-related opportunity ahead.</p>
<p>Overall, Bora noted the fourth quarter as a good end to the year, with Box seeing solid momentum in some of its newer products, positively impacting bookings, and an improving revenue growth glide path through the year.</p>
<p>The analyst&#8217;s medium to long-term thesis remains intact, as he noted that Box positions itself as the unifying content layer between collaboration tools and enterprise applications. Box also utilizes generative AI to help its customers unlock value from the vast array of enterprise content within Box.</p>
<p>Bora projected first-quarter revenue of $274.52 million and adjusted EPS of $0.25.</p>
<p><strong>Raymond James:</strong> Peterson rerated following fourth-quarter results that showed an impressive re-acceleration in billings, although shares traded down after hours on a below consensus margin outlook for fiscal 2026.</p>
<p>With early progress on the Enterprise Advanced Plans diversification of the go-to-market motion and interest in AI functionality, the analyst noted the time is right to redeploy some of the recent margin expansion back into growth.</p>
<p>Box has made tremendous strides in improving its profitability profile over the last several years, and Peterson noted multiple expansions would be more driven by increased confidence in the durability of growth.</p>
<p>Peterson projected first-quarter revenue of $274.21 million and adjusted EPS of $0.25.</p>
<p><strong>Price Action:</strong> BOX stock is down 3.79% at $32.20 at the last check on Wednesday.</p>
