Big Buyback Program And Cheap Valuations Make Jacobs A Buy

J
Published: February 14, 2025 by: Seeking Alpha
Sentiment: Positive

I have a buy rating on Jacobs with a price target of $178, a 37% upside from the current market price. J's 1Q25 results were muted, but the long-term outlook is positive with potential margin improvement. I also like the Company's prudent management approach toward capital allocation, which focuses more on returning capital to shareholders rather than doing inorganic expansion.
