UBS analyst Joshua Chan has revised the price target for UniFirst Corporation (UNF), nudging it upward to $260 from $206. This represents a significant jump, approximately 26.2%, from its previous valuation. Despite this upward adjustment, the firm maintains a 'Neutral' rating on the company's shares.
The analyst's assessment, relayed in a research note, suggests that UniFirst delivered a "solid quarter," with its uniform business performing "slightly better than expected." This positive operational observation underpins the increased price target. The adjusted target implies a potential upside of roughly 1.6% from the most recent closing price of UNF.
Previous reports indicate a pattern of UBS analysts reviewing UniFirst's valuation. In January 2026, a price target of $206 was set, an increase from $182. This latest revision marks another shift in the firm's assessment of the company's market value.
The aggregate analyst rating for UniFirst, based on data from various market providers, currently stands at 'Neutral'. This indicates a divided sentiment among market watchers, with the UBS adjustment now being a prominent point of discussion.
