They immediately established an ambitious, five-year strategic plan to reposition Bombardier, with a focus squarely on its sturdiest leg: the high-flying business jet and ancillary services industry. Deliveries of business and general aviation aircraft last year topped 4,000 for the first time in more than a decade, the General Aviation Manufacturers Association reported in February. Historically, the business jet market has been cyclical, said Noah Poponak, an analyst for Goldman Sachs, "but it's been hyper-cyclical in the past 20 years." Sales of all business jets were healthy leading into 2020 — and then the Covid pandemic hit. Everyone wanted a business jet and was willing to buy whatever was out there, new or used."

"TDY is one of the highest quality, most consistent, best managed companies we cover that compounds cash flow over time," analyst Noah Poponak said. Cash flow compounders reinvest their excess free cash flow each year back into the company at a rate that is sustainable and provide long-term growth. Teledyne has compounded free cash flow at a 17% compound annual growth rate over the last decade, according to the Goldman note. According to Poponak, Teledyne's margins have expanded over time by shifting into higher value-added business lines, which he expects will support continued EPS and free cash flow compounding long term. Another catalyst that will drive higher earnings and cash flow is Teledyne's M & A efforts, the analyst said.

☆ Goldman Sachs downgrades Lockheed Martin, says shares could fall 28% if government reduces defense spending
▼ + stars: | 2023-01-13 | by ( Alex Harring | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +2 min

Goldman Sachs sees potential pressure to Lockheed Martin 's stock if the U.S. tries to rein in spending. Defense stocks could suffer if defense budgets, valuations or their earnings come off the near all-time highs they are currently running near, he said. Poponak downgraded Lockheed Martin to sell from neutral, nothing that the company is particularly vulnerable to any changes in government budgets with 75% exposure. Beyond changes to the government budget, Poponak expects financial losses from halted deliveries of its F-35 jets due to a December incident that is still being investigated. Inflation will also limit organic growth in the coming years, he said, leading to a mid-2020s recovery just to where Lockheed Martin performed in 2021.

☆ This options strategy could be a smart way to play Boeing's earnings, Goldman says
▼ + stars: | 2023-01-11 | by ( Jesse Pound | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +2 min

Boeing is poised for a strong quarterly report that should send its stock higher and reward options traders, according to Goldman Sachs. A call option serves as a bet that a stock will rise above a certain strike price before the contract expires. The option allows the holder to buy the stock at that strike price, which would be at a discount to the market. That low average price target could be one reason that the options market for Boeing is still cheap, which should increase the return of a winning options trade. One-month implied volatility of 40 is only in its 29th percentile relative to the past year," the Goldman note said.

A resurgence in air travel, and the need for new aircraft to meet growing demand, should benefit Boeing into the new year, according to Goldman Sachs. "We see substantial cyclical and long-term secular upside at Boeing and much of its supply chain," Poponak wrote. Against this backdrop, large commercial aircraft demand should remain strong as new orders hover near record levels. Boeing should also benefit from normalization in free cash flows within the $20-a-share range by the middle of the decade, according to Poponak.
