RBC Trims FMC Price Target to $42, Cites Tepid Q3 Outlook but Stays Neutral on Long-Term Strength

FMC Corporation (NYSE: FMC) is one of the best agriculture technology stocks to buy now. On August 1, 2025, RBC Capital’s Arun Viswanathan retained his Sector Perform (Hold) rating, but cut the price target from $47 to $42. The firm acknowledged FMC delivered a modest Q2 beat and stuck to its full‑year guidance, yet investors may have hoped for stronger near‑term outlook from management.

Viswanathan flagged caution around the Q3 guidance, noting it lacked clear evidence of earnings acceleration, and pointed out that most of FMC’s free cash flow in 2025 is expected to arrive in Q4, limiting upside for the near term.
