  • Zebra Technologies (ZBRA) Stock Gains After Strong Q1 and Raised 2026 Guidance
    May 13, 2026, 7:49 PM EDT. Zebra Technologies (ZBRA) shares rose 7.4% over the past week following a first-quarter earnings beat and an upward revision of full-year 2026 sales and earnings guidance. The company is advancing its push into automation and artificial intelligence, supported by increased share repurchases. Despite a 17.6% decline in total shareholder return over the past year, analysts see Zebra as 24.1% undervalued with a $325.31 fair value estimate, factoring in rising margins, steady cash flow, and evolving earnings mix. Key growth drivers include digital transformation, labor shortages, and e-commerce expansion. Risks remain around tariffs and integration of recent acquisitions Elo and Photoneo, which could impact margins and cash flow. Investors are advised to weigh rewards against risks ahead of decisions.
