The price target hike comes amid expectations that the company is positioned for robust growth driven by its Aerospace Products segment. The investment bank expects the company’s market share to increase to 25% from 10%, given the underlying growth. In addition, the research firm has touted the company’s improving cost efficiencies, attributed to scaled manufacturing and increased PMA utilization.
