As previously reported, BofA/Merrill upgraded Oshkosh to Buy from Neutral and raised its price target to $85 from $76. Analyst Ross Gilardi does not believe Oshkosh's earnings growth outlook has peaked and raised 2020-21 estimates above consensus based on steady growth in its Access and Fire & Emergency units, and rising Defense backlog. The analyst believes Access guidance is overly conservative and visibility in Defense is improving, providing "scarce earnings momentum in a slow growth machinery world."
