Why This A/C Specialist Could Be the Hottest Industrial Stock
As I write, heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) company Carrier's (NYSE: CARR) stock is up nearly 50% year to date. Still, I think there's more room to run. The recent second-quarter earnings report saw management raising full-year guidance, and there are multiple reasons the company could continue to delight investors in the future as well. Here are three of them.
Carrier started 2021 expecting organic sales growth of 4% to 6%, free cash flow (FCF) of $1.6 billion, and adjusted earnings per share (EPS) of $1.85 to $1.95. It's a measure of the progress the company has made this year that management hiked full-year guidance to organic sales growth of 10% to 12%, FCF of $1.9 billion, and adjusted EPS of $2.10 to $2.20.
