APi Group (APG) Stock

I maintain a buy rating for APG because of its strong potential for market share, growth acceleration, and expected increase in adjusted EBITDA margins for FY25 and later. The company shows solid demand with a $3.5 billion backlog, strong end markets, and a promising pipeline for mergers and acquisitions, which supports high-single-digit growth. Although there has been a revision in revenue guidance for FY24 due to temporary project delays, this positions FY25 for stronger growth with encouraging trends in proposal activity.

I have changed my recommendation for Genuine Parts Company stock from buy to hold because of its disappointing performance in the third quarter of 2024 and a challenging economic environment affecting both the APG and IPG segments. The results for the third quarter showed lower-than-expected sales growth, which caused earnings per share estimates to fall short. The future looks uncertain, with little indication of improvement in consumer spending or industrial production.

APi (APG) lacks the right mix of two important factors that could lead to a strong earnings report in the near future. Be ready for the main expectations.

Investors should closely monitor APi Group (APG) stock due to recent changes in the options market.
