Fortune Brands Innovations Inc. (FBIN) stock plummeted 18.94% at the opening bell in Friday's intraday trading session.
The sharp decline follows the company's reported fourth-quarter 2025 financial results, which missed analyst expectations. Fortune Brands posted adjusted earnings per share of $0.86, below the consensus estimate of $1.00, while revenue of $1.10 billion also fell short of expectations. Furthermore, the company provided cautious guidance for fiscal year 2026, forecasting net sales to be flat to up only 2.0% and expecting EPS below analyst projections, citing an uncertain external environment and negative impacts from the Chinese market.
Adding to the negative sentiment, several analysts took action on the stock. Barclays downgraded Fortune Brands Innovations from Overweight to Equal-Weight and significantly reduced its price target. RBC and Baird also lowered their price targets on the shares, reflecting concerns over the company's near-term financial performance and outlook.
