Johnson Electric Holdings Limited (BMG5150J1577) faces a Neutral call from Citi with a RMB 19.60 target for Johnson Electric stock, as Futu reports. Citi forecasts Johnson Electric net profit to decline 18.00 percent year over year to USD 109.00 million in the first half of fiscal 2027.

Citi flags a weaker profit outlook

The report links the forecast gap to differing exposure to automation and robotics growth. Johnson Electric's related revenue is estimated at 4.00 percent of sales, while the comparison company in the report is assigned a 20.00 percent to 25.00 percent contribution from those businesses.

Citi also points to raw-material sensitivity, with copper costs identified as a headwind for Johnson Electric. The rating is Neutral, and the target is RMB 19.60, giving investors a clearly defined analyst reference in a currency separate from the euro quotation.
