Should I Buy Nutrien Stock? NTR Pros and Cons Explained

These pros and cons were generated based on recent news and financial data from MarketBeat in order to provide readers with the fastest and most accurate insights. They were last updated on Monday, April 14, 2025. Please send any questions or comments about these Nutrien pros and cons to contact@marketbeat.com.

Nutrien
Bull Case

Here are some ways that investors could benefit from investing in Nutrien Ltd.:

Nutrien Ltd. has received multiple "outperform" ratings from analysts, indicating strong confidence in the stock's potential for growth. Recent target prices from firms like Royal Bank of Canada and Scotiabank suggest a price objective of $60.00 to $62.00, which is significantly higher than the current stock price of $47.74.
The company has a solid market capitalization of $23.34 billion, which reflects its stability and ability to weather market fluctuations. A strong market cap often indicates a well-established company with a reliable revenue stream.
Nutrien Ltd. has a diversified business model, operating through four segments: Retail, Potash, Nitrogen, and Phosphate. This diversification can help mitigate risks associated with reliance on a single product line.
The recent announcement of a quarterly dividend of $0.545, translating to an annualized yield of 4.57%, provides a steady income stream for investors. A consistent dividend can be a sign of a company's financial health and commitment to returning value to shareholders.
Analysts expect Nutrien Ltd. to post earnings per share (EPS) of 3.72 for the current fiscal year, indicating potential profitability and growth, which can attract more investors looking for solid returns.

Nutrien
Bear Case

Investors should be bearish about investing in Nutrien Ltd. for these reasons:

The stock has recently experienced a decline, trading down 1.4% to $47.74, which may indicate bearish sentiment among investors and could suggest potential volatility in the near term.
Nutrien Ltd. has a relatively high dividend payout ratio of 159.12%, which means it is paying out more in dividends than it is earning. This could raise concerns about the sustainability of its dividend payments in the future.
Despite positive ratings from some analysts, there are still two analysts who have issued sell ratings, indicating that there is some skepticism about the stock's future performance.
The company reported earnings of $0.28 per share, missing analysts' consensus estimates of $0.37, which could raise concerns about its ability to meet future earnings expectations.
The stock's beta of 0.77 suggests that it is less volatile than the market, which can be a double-edged sword; while it may provide stability, it could also limit potential gains during bullish market conditions.
