Auriga reiterates a 'Buy' on Spirit AeroSystems (NYSE: SPR) price target raised from $27.50 to $30.00.

Auriga analyst says, "Spirit AeroSystems reported fourth-quarter GAAP EPS of $0.42, with strong underlying operating results of $0.57 excluding several one-time items. We view charges taken in the fourth-quarter as a positive as we believe it sets the stage for a clean start to 2012. Given upward revisions to our estimates, we are increasing our price target, reflecting a consistent multiple of 11x our FY13 estimate of $2.65. Moreover, we see good likelihood for incremental multiple expansion on a sequential basis as the company begins to execute on a stronger OEM backdrop."
