Deutsche Bank initiates coverage on Blue Nile (NASDAQ: NILE) with a Buy rating and price target of $53.00
"NILE operates one of the best business models in all of e-commerce," said analysts.
"Oddly, the business model is similar to an airline: when input costs are rising at unsustainable inflationary rates, the company struggles to compete, but when costs reverse the model flourishes with growth and margins expanding," noted the report.
"2012 is firmly in the growth and margin expansion phase, which couldn’t come at a more important time in the company’s history as it embarks on a turn-around focused on increasing growth in its non-engagement business. We expect modest upside to estimates in 2H12 and shares remain attractively valued," said analyst Ross Sandler.
