Reason

Roth Capital analyst Craig Irwin assumed coverage of Blue Bird with a Buy rating and $94 price target. The firm notes several key catalysts driving the stock's investment story forward, including an aging school bus population that will drive strong replacement orders, above normalized levels for the next several years, the analyst tells investors in a research note. Roth adds that the Micro Bus acquisition expands Blue Bird's reach across adjacent markets, also noting that the firm sees Blue Bird uniquely positioned from the current and expected growth in non-diesel-powered school buses.

Reason

DA Davidson keeps a Buy rating and $86 price target on Blue Bird while also adding the stock to the firm's "Best-of-Breed Bison List" seeking out companies with outstanding business opportunity, enduring moat, exceptional financials, and compelling risk-reward. Prior to the pandemic, industry pricing was very chaotic and the company's century-old production facility and process were antiquated, but pricing has improved substantially in the years since, and Blue Bird has undertaken significant cost and productivity improvements, culminating in an improvement from about 7% EBITDA margins to 15% today, the analyst tells investors in a research note.
