Lamb Weston Holdings is seen as having significant upside potential due to activist investors Starboard and Jana Partners pushing for cost cuts and a 25% adjusted EBITDA margin by 2029. Despite strong Q3 North American demand and progress on cost reductions, challenges remain with weaker European and Asian markets and inventory write-downs. The stock, currently trading near $44, offers an attractive entry point after falling from a high of $65 in late 2025. The analyst maintains a Strong Buy rating but advises caution due to recession risks and consumer weakness, suggesting a small position and watching for better entry points.
