BRP Outlook Dampened by Tariffs, Waiting for USMCA Clarity -- Market Talk

Dow Jones
May 30
 

BRP's guidance is a little soft given the U.S. tariff situation, but TD Cowen's Brian Morrison says that USMCA resolution will bring back visibility. In a note, Morrison says that while 1Q was far stronger than expected, the rest of the year looks "soft," reflecting the drag from Section 232 tariffs and management's decision not to allocate capital without clarity. The approach is prudent, he says, noting that BRP is focused on pricing, cost efficiencies and overhead reductions until a broader trade framework is set. Morrison says once that viability improves, BRP can optimize sourcing and even assembly locations, potentially offsetting significant portion of tariff exposure. TD Cowen lifts the target price to C$92 from C$84. Shares fall 2.9% at C$78.55. (adriano.marchese@wsj.com)
