About: 3M, a multinational conglomerate founded in 1902, sells tens of thousands of products ranging from sponges to respirators. The firm is well known for its extensive research and development capabilities, and it is a pioneer in inventing new use cases for its proprietary technologies. 3M is organized across three business segments: safety and industrial (representing around 44% of revenue), transportation and electronics (36%), and consumer (20%). The firm recently spun off its healthcare business, now known as Solventum. Nearly half of 3M's revenue comes from outside the Americas.

3M Company: Cautious Sales Environment, Settlements Weigh On Cash Flow (Rating Downgrade)
3M is going to report the company's Q1 results. Wall Street still expects subdued revenue growth, whereas 3M's restructuring should benefit profitability. 3M's expensive PFAS and earplug lawsuit settlements weigh significantly on the company's cash flow. As MMM stock has risen, the valuation now stands unattractive. I estimate 28% downside to a fair value of $94.4.
