Although Rockwell Automation (NYSE: ROK) reported strong earnings for its fiscal second quarter, significantly beating expectations, the conference call with management triggered concerns over the company's performance in the next quarter and fiscal 2021, according to Rosenblatt Securities.The Rockwell AnalystScott Graham downgraded Rockwell Automation's stock from Neutral to Sell, while raising the price target from $155 to $173.The Rockwell ThesisFollowing the call with management, Rockwell Automation seems to be headed for earnings declines over the next four quarters, Graham said in the note.The company's strong earnings in the quarter were driven by robust margins due to a meaningful decline in incentive comp. The guidance for the third quarter came in much below expectations "on a decremental margin which will exceed 50%," the analyst wrote.He added that the fiscal 2020 earnings guidance range of between $6.90 and $7.70 per share is very wide, considering only half the year is left, and suggests that management is "struggling with where earnings will land."Although the guidance incorporates $150 million in annualized cost savings, all the reductions are variable or discretionary, and none are structural, Graham pointed out.View more earnings on ROKHe said Rockwell Automation's earnings in fiscal 2021 will be hurt by "this year's largely variable and discretionary cost reductions."ROK Price ActionShares of Rockwell Automation had risen 1.1% to $198.41 at time of publication Wednesday.Related Links:Benzinga's Top Upgrades, Downgrades For April 29, 2020Recap: Rockwell Automation Q2 EarningsLatest Ratings for ROK DateFirmActionFromTo Apr 2020BarclaysMaintainsOverweight Apr 2020CitigroupMaintainsNeutral Apr 2020Morgan StanleyMaintainsEqual-Weight View More Analyst Ratings for ROK View the Latest Analyst Ratings See more from Benzinga * Roku Is Well-Positioned With Or Without A Pandemic, Benchmark Says In Bullish Initiation * While GE's Q1 Print Reflects Coronavirus Impact, BofA Applauds Actions Taken To Preserve Liquidity * Analyst Cuts Murphy Oil Rating On Valuation, Ahead Of A Tougher 2021(C) 2020 Benzinga.com.
