Barclays reiterates an 'Overweight' on Bed Bath & Beyond (NASDAQ: BBBY) price target of $76.00.

Analyst, Alan M. Rifkin, said, "We recently toured Bed Bath & Beyond's East Hanover, NJ store, which features a broad assortment of higher-end epicurean food and beverages. World Market, as it is named, is an approximate 4,000 square foot department within a traditional Bed Beth & Beyond store, that approximates 50,000 square feet overall."

Rifkin sees continued market share gains with the new store-in-store concept, along with an attractive valuation, despite the growth in e-commerce transactions/competition (Barclays maintains FY12/13 EPS estimate at $0.01/0.07).
