BofA Securities analyst Tim Ramskill lowered the price target on Rentokil Initial Plc. (RTO:LN) (NYSE: RTO) to GBP4.15 (from GBP4.84) while maintaining a Buy rating.

The analyst comments: “Given the disappointment of H1 results, slower market growth rates, emergence of LLMs impact on lead generation but with the 12m fwd PE at a more than decade low, Rentokil has featured highly in our recent investor dialogue. Today we leverage two proprietary sources of insight – BAC aggregated credit and debit card data and a survey of 450 US Pest Control consumers – in opting to cut our 2027-28E EPS by 8%.

Stifel Upgrades Rentokil Initial Plc. (RTO:LN) (RTO) to Buy

Mon, 05 Oct 2026 03:45:59 -0400

Stifel analyst Sam Dindol upgraded Rentokil Initial Plc. (RTO:LN) (NYSE: RTO) from Hold to Buy with a price target of GBP3.90 (from GBP3.95).

The analyst comments: “Rentokil's share price and valuation are at their lowest levels since 2018 and 2015 respectively, having drifted down further since interims.

We view this as reflecting conference commentary from both Rentokil and peer Rollins, with Rollins seeing "more turbulence in 3Q" after a softer than expected 2Q, and suggesting a shift to LLMs is adversely impacting lead volumes.

As such, we expect Rentokil's North American Pest Control Services organic growth to remain subdued in 3Q at 0%

Morgan Stanley cuts Rentokil on tougher U.S. pest-control competition

Tue, 29 Sep 2026 07:19:02 -0400

Investing.com -- Morgan Stanley downgraded Rentokil Initial to “equal-weight” from “overweight” and cut its price target 16% to 420 pence from 500 pence, citing tougher competition in the U.S. pest control market and lower valuation multiples among peers.

The brokerage said private equity-backed operators have rapidly expanded their share of the U.S. market, increasing competition for Rentokil and rival Rollins. Private equity firms now account for more than 16% of revenue among the top 100 pest control companies, up from 1% a decade ago, Morgan Stanley said. Rentokil and

Morgan Stanley analyst Annelies Vermeulen downgraded Rentokil Initial Plc. (RTO:LN) (NYSE: RTO) from Overweight to Equalweight with a price target of GBP4.20 (from GBP5.00).

The analyst comments: “We downgrade Rentokil to Equal-weight, and lower our PT 16% to 420p on lower peer multiples. While the shares are down >30% since June and now trading on close to all-time low multiples (13x P/E and 11x EV/EBITA on MSe for FY27), we do not see any near-term catalysts for a re-rating (we expect a soggy 3Q print and a lengthy turnaround under the new CEO). Further, given the structural pressures outlined above, we
