Oppenheimer analyst Noah Kaye lowered his price target for Johnson Controls (JCI) to $39 from $44 after the company announced an agreement to sell Power Solutions to Brookfield Business Partners (BBU), concluding the strategic review begun in March. The analyst believes the transaction multiple was reasonable, projected tax leakage was better than he had feared, and management was constructive on deploying sale proceeds for acquisitions. However, without accretive deal-making, the Power sale will be materially dilutive to Johnson Controls' earnings/free cash flow, even with buybacks and corporate savings, he contends. Kaye reiterates an Outperform rating on the shares.
