Mixed

In-Situ acquisition and dividend announcement power instrumentation company growth

Veralto rose $0.93 in after-hours trading to $94.33, supported by a $435 million acquisition of In-Situ expected to close in Q1 2026 and delivering approximately $80 million of 2025 sales with mid-teens EBITDA margin potential. The company also announced a cash dividend of $0.13 with an ex-date of March 31, 2026, demonstrating capital return discipline. However, the consensus rating remains Moderate Buy with skepticism regarding future growth due to disappointing guidance, with a mean price target of $109.19 reflecting 21.6% premium from current levels.
