Textron Management Aggressively Investing for Growth; Initiating Coverage With a $42 Fair Value

We're initiating coverage on industrial conglomerate Textron with a fair value estimate of $42 per share and a no-moat rating. Although we think aspects of Textron's business deserve a narrow moat, a healthy amount of no-moat businesses combined with our forecast for value destruction through 2018 constrains our moat rating to none. Our fair value translates into a 3-star rating, noting a high uncertainty for our valuation due to the multiple investments currently underway across the company.
