  • A recent upgrade from an analyst has significantly boosted the stock price of Kratos Defense & Security Solutions (NASDAQ: KTOS).

  • The analyst increased the company’s fair value estimate by a staggering 38%.

This substantial price target raise can be credited to the favorable reassessment of Kratos Defense & Security Solutions, propelling its share price up by nearly 4% on Thursday, in stark contrast to the 0.5% decrease observed in the benchmark S&P 500 index.

The upgrade came from Ken Herbert of RBC Capital, who revised his fair value assessment for Kratos from $65 to an impressive $90 per share. Simultaneously, he reiterated his “outperform” rating on the stock, signaling a strong buy recommendation.

The reasoning behind Herbert’s significant upgrade appears coincidental with the timely release of positive developments from Kratos. Just days before, the defense contractor had announced a lucrative five-year strategic manufacturing partnership with Elroy Air, a next-generation aircraft manufacturer specializing in self-piloting military logistics. Under this agreement, Kratos will exclusively manufacture Elroy’s Chaparral cargo drone.

On the same day, Kratos further announced that it, in partnership with major competitor GE Aerospace, had commenced altitude testing on a cutting-edge drone engine they are developing. Dubbed the GEK800, this engine is reportedly designed to facilitate affordable unmanned aerial systems and Collaborative Combat Aircraft (CCA) for the U.S. military, enhancing operational capabilities through uncrewed “wingman” support for fighter jets.

Before making any investment in Kratos Defense & Security Solutions, it’s essential to note:

The Motley Fool Stock Advisor team has identified what they consider the 10 top investments for current stock buyers, and notably, Kratos Defense & Security Solutions is not included among them. The companies selected for this list have the potential to yield impressive returns in the upcoming years.

For perspective, when Netflix was recommended on December 17, 2004, an investment of $1,000 would now be worth an astonishing $649,280. Similarly, an early investment in Nvidia made on April 15, 2005, would have grown to $1,084,802.
