Why ABM Industries Topped the Market Today

Not one, but two analysts upgraded their recommendations on the company. Both now believe investors should buy its shares. 10 stocks we like better than Abm Industries › ABM Industries (NYSE: ABM) stock kicked off the trading week on a high note Monday, closing more than 3.5% higher in price following two recommendation upgrades from analysts tracking the stock. That performance was more than good enough to eclipse the bellwether S&P 500 index, which essentially flatlined that day. Those pundit updates came one business day after ABM released its second quarter of fiscal 2025 earnings report. The company notched a minor beat on the consensus analyst estimate for revenue but missed slightly on that for profitability. Investors didn't greet this development warmly, and their immediate reaction as a group was to trade out of ABM's shares. The situation flipped on Monday, however, as the pair of pundits published new takes on the stock before market open. The first upgrade came from Baird's Andrew Wittman. He upgraded his recommendation on ABM to outperform (i.e., buy) from the previous neutral at a price target of $56 per share. According to reports, Wittman feels the sell-off was unjustified and leaves the stock attractively priced, especially since the company has been effective at securing new work. His peer Joshua Chan at UBS also became notably more bullish on ABM with a recommendation change to buy from neutral (in his case, tagging the stock with a $50 per share price target). According to reports, Chan was particularly encouraged by renewed growth in the company's core business and industry segment. Personally, I'd fall between those bearish investors selling off ABM stock Friday and the analysts upping their recommendations. Yes, the company has reported some encouraging developments of late, but it's neither a strongly growing business nor a high-yielding dividend payer. I'd probably look elsewhere for stocks with better potential.

WaterField's New All-Day Shinjuku Duffel Masters Work, Workout, and Weekends

San Francisco's WaterField Designs introduces the Shinjuku Duffel, featuring dedicated spaces for office gear, clothing, and quick-access essentials. The new carryall combines the professional aesthetic of a briefcase with expanded capacity for fitness and travel, allowing busy professionals to navigate their day with a single, sophisticated bag. SAN FRANCISCO, June 10, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- San Francisco's WaterField Designs introduces the Shinjuku Duffel, the latest addition to the company's Shinjuku Collection, inspired by the dynamic energy of Tokyo's Shinjuku district. Crafted from ultra-lightweight, water-resistant X-Pac® Canvas or traditional waxed canvas with premium full-grain leather accents, the new compact duffel features three distinct compartments that elegantly organize the essentials of today's digital nomads – from protecting tech devices on daily commutes, to storing gear for lunchtime workouts, to organizing necessities for overnight trips. VIDEO: Tour the Shinjuku Duffel "Many professionals juggle multiple bags throughout their day – a briefcase for work, a gym bag for fitness, and yet another weekender bag for overnight trips," explained company owner Gary Waterfield. "Our Shinjuku Duffel is your ideal everyday, all-day holdall that blends professional aesthetics and flexible functionality for an efficient way to carry just one handsome bag throughout your day." The Shinjuku Duffel's intelligent design solves common carryall frustrations. The bag's layout, structure, and ample organization allow it to hold an overnight's worth of gear without being large and bulky—nothing is swimming around. Its size and quick-access pockets facilitate smooth commuting, so users aren't fishing for their wallet in a large black hole or swinging an unruly bag shaped like a battering ram in crowded spaces. The Shinjuku Duffel's three-zone organization system includes: a dedicated office compartment with padded laptop and tablet sleeves; a spacious main compartment for personal, fitness, or overnight necessities with organization pockets and a collapsible water bottle sleeve; and a full-length zippered front pocket for quick-access items with internal organization and a key tether. This thoughtful separation of work gear from clothing and smaller items caters to commuters, hybrid workers, and frequent travelers. A rear magnetic pocket securely holds passports and other valuables against the body. The main compartment features a full-length zipper that extends down the sides allowing the bag to open wide, while internal gussets keep contents in place. This feature enables users to easily pack, locate, and access items anywhere in the duffel bag, even those at the bottom. A gold, water-resistant liner brightens the interior eliminating the "black hole" effect common to standard duffels. The bright liner also resists stains and wipes clean easily. The Shinjuku Duffel is offered in X-Pac® Canvas – a high-performance textile that combines ultra-lightweight, water-resistant, and highly durable X-Pac® with canvas for a soft touch – making the bag feel light even when fully packed. The duffel is also available in rugged waxed canvas for those preferring a classic, well-traveled aesthetic. Both options feature sumptuous full-grain leather accents. Features: Three custom compartments: A dedicated office section with a padded laptop sleeve with charging cutouts (for up to a 16-inch MacBook Pro), a padded tablet pocket (for up to a 13-inch iPad Pro), and a full-length document pocket. A spacious main compartment with four elevated translucent mesh pockets and a retractable water bottle holder. A three-quarter zipper opens wide and internal gussets keep contents secure. A pleated full-length front quick-access pocket with internal mesh pockets, pen slots, and a key tether. A hidden, magnetic rear pocket holds passports, transit cards, and other quick-access items. Closed-cell foam padding on front, rear, and bottom panels add structure and enhance protection and durability. Gold, easy-clean liner illuminates interior for enhanced visibility. Three carry options ease transport: comfortable leather-wrapped handles, suitcase handle pass-through, and WaterField's removable Supreme Suspension Strap. Available in ultra-light, abrasion and water-resistant X-Pac® Canvas or traditional waxed canvas, each paired with full-grain leather accents, YKK waterproof zippers, and custom metal hardware combine for a look suitable in both formal and casual settings. Handcrafted to exacting standards in San Francisco with a lifetime warranty for defects in materials and workmanship for the product's lifetime. The Shinjuku Duffel is the sixth addition this year to WaterField's Shinjuku Collection of bags, inspired by Tokyo's vibrant trendy neighborhood, each designed to combine mobility and accessibility with sophisticated styling. The new duffel joins WaterField's collection of carryall bags for active professionals.

EPR, MO, and BTI: The Dividend Kings Offering Sturdy Yields and Stock Price Gains

In today's market, dividend investors often face a tough choice: high-yield stocks that risk becoming yield traps due to poor performance, or growth stocks with solid returns but minimal income. However, a select group of dividend stocks is managing to offer the best of both worlds—strong yields and solid performance. Not only are these stocks the so-called 'Dividend Kings', but they've also provided rather decent stock price appreciation in recent months. Confident Investing Starts Here: Easily unpack a company's performance with TipRanks' new KPI Data for smart investment decisions Receive undervalued, market resilient stocks right to your inbox with TipRanks' Smart Value Newsletter EPR Properties (EPR), Altria (MO), and British American Tobacco (BTI) are three dividend stocks worth watching, each offering an attractive yield of over 6%. Unlike many high-yield plays driven by declining share prices, these names have delivered substantial gains over the past year, making them standouts in the current landscape. EPR Properties (NYSE:EPR) While quarterly dividends are appreciated, monthly dividends offer even greater appeal—and that's precisely what EPR Properties provides. The stock currently offers an attractive 6.1% yield, nearly five times higher than the S&P 500 (SPX). Importantly, this yield isn't the result of a declining share price; EPR has been a strong performer, climbing 40% over the past 12 months. Despite this impressive rally, the stock remains reasonably valued, trading at just 11x forward funds from operations (FFO)—a key valuation metric for real estate investment trusts (REITs). As a firm, EPR specializes in owning and developing experiential properties across the U.S. Its portfolio includes a wide range of venues such as movie theaters, fitness centers, 'eat-and-play' destinations (like bowling alleys and golf entertainment venues such as TopGolf), amusement parks, water parks, and ski resorts. With 331 properties and over 200 tenants throughout the U.S. and Canada, EPR benefits from a broad and diversified income base. The company has paid a dividend for 27 consecutive years. However, it should be noted that while this is a monthly dividend payer, the company didn't pay a dividend for 15 months during 2020 and 2021 as it grappled with the effects of the COVID pandemic. While this is a concern worth being aware of, I don't think it's a cause for significant worry going forward as the pandemic and the lockdowns presented an extreme, unprecedented scenario for all businesses to deal with, especially ones like EPR that own experiential properties that require people to be out and about to be successful. Since resuming dividend payouts in July 2021, EPR has been paying these monthly dividends consistently and incrementally increasing the payouts over time. I'm bullish on this unique REIT based on its strong momentum over the past year, inexpensive valuation, 6%+ dividend yield, and attractive monthly payout schedule, making it a strong option for income investors. Is EPR a Good Stock to Buy? EPR earns a Hold consensus rating based on three Buys, five Holds, and two Sell ratings assigned in the past three months. The average EPR stock price target of $54.75 implies ~3% downside potential from current levels. Altria (NYSE:MO) Unlike EPR, Altria Group—the parent company of Marlboro cigarettes in the U.S., as well as electronic cigarette brand NJOY, and on! nicotine pouches—doesn't pay a monthly dividend. Instead, it follows the more traditional quarterly schedule. However, it makes up for that with an even higher yield of 6.8%, surpassing EPR's payout. And importantly, this yield isn't the result of weak performance—Altria shares have climbed ~27% over the past year. Beyond its generous yield, Altria offers exceptional dividend reliability. As a Dividend King, the company has increased its dividend for 55 consecutive years—a testament to its long-term commitment to shareholders. Altria is also returning capital through share buybacks. In Q1 2025, the company repurchased $326 million worth of stock, leaving $674 million remaining under its current authorization, which it aims to complete by the end of the year. Shares of Altria are also cheap, trading at just 11x earnings. This represents a significant discount to the broader market as the S&P 500 currently trades at roughly 21x. While tobacco companies are rarely associated with high growth, it's important to note that Altria is not a business in decline. The company is projecting steady, if modest, earnings per share growth of 2–5% for 2025. Notably, Altria is seeing strong momentum in its smokeless products segment—its on! nicotine pouches registered 18% year-over-year shipment growth in the most recent quarter, signaling a fruitful long-term market offering. I remain bullish on Altria, driven by its nearly 7% dividend yield, its remarkable track record of consistent dividend growth, and its attractive, undemanding valuation. Is Altria Group a Buy, Sell, or Hold? MO earns a Hold consensus rating based on three Buys, three Holds, and two Sell ratings assigned in the past three months. MO's average stock price target of $56.86 implies ~4% downside potential from current levels over the coming year. British American Tobacco (NYSE:BTI) Like Altria, British American Tobacco is a global leader in tobacco and nicotine products, delivering impressive returns—shares are up ~55% over the past 12 months. The company owns iconic cigarette brands, such as Lucky Strike, and markets Camel, American Spirit, and Newport in the U.S. Its portfolio also includes next-generation products, including Vuse vapor devices and Velo nicotine pouches. BTI currently offers an appealing dividend yield of 6.2%, paid quarterly. The company has a strong track record of 26 consecutive years of dividend growth on a GBP basis, though U.S. investors should note that payouts may vary in USD terms due to currency fluctuations. Valuation-wise, BTI appears attractively priced, trading at just 10.4x projected 2025 earnings—slightly below Altria's multiple and roughly half the valuation of the broader market. In addition to its dividend, BTI is actively returning capital to shareholders through stock buybacks. Following the partial sale of its stake in Indian conglomerate ITC, the company raised its 2025 buyback program to £1.1 billion. I'm bullish on BTI due to its strong yield, consistent dividend history, sizable share buyback program, and compelling valuation. What is the Price Target for BTI Stock? On Wall Street, BTI stock carries a Moderate Sell consensus rating based on coverage from just two analysts. According to Rashad Kawan from Morgan Stanley, BTI is rated a Sell with a price target of $35.50, indicating approximately 25% downside risk in BTI stock over the coming months. In his most recent research note, Kawan reaffirmed his Sell rating based on BTI's latest earnings release, published in February of this year. Meanwhile, John Eade from Argus Research issued a Hold rating on BTI at the turn of the year and has not changed his stance since. Three Strong Choices for Income Investors In today's market, it's rare to find stocks that offer both attractive dividend yields and strong performance, but EPR Properties, Altria, and British American Tobacco all manage to deliver on both fronts. I'm bullish on all three and consider them strong picks for income-focused investors. Each stock offers a dividend yield above 6%, trades at a reasonable valuation, and has posted impressive gains over the past year, making them far from typical yield traps. Among the three, my top picks are EPR and Altria. EPR stands out for its monthly dividend payments, differentiated business model, and diverse revenue streams. While both Altria and BTI are compelling options, I give the edge to Altria due to its exceptional track record of consistent dividend growth spanning more than five decades.
