Linde Poised to Resume 10%-Plus EPS Growth in 2027, Deutsche Bank Says

01:19 PM EDT, 09/04/2026 (MT Newswires) -- Linde (LIN) is poised to return to its 10%-plus EPS growth algorithm starting 2027 and reestablish itself as one of the premier growth compounders across the industrial, materials and commercial services segments, Deutsche Bank said in a Friday research note. The brokerage said it reaffirmed its Q3 EPS estimate of $4.50 and 2026 EPS forecast of $17.80. The return to double-digit EPS growth will be driven by stabilization of headwinds from helium and Lincare, accelerating growth from electronics and space, pricing gains, and productivity, according to the note. Deutsche Bank reaffirmed its buy rating on the stock, with a $575 price target. Price: 480.33, Change: -1.86, Percent Change: -0.39
