UBS analyst Michael Lasser reiterated a Buy rating and $63 price target on Dick's Sporting Goods (NYSE: DKS) after data from the UBS Evidence Lab shows that the market is still highly fragmented and DKS has a significant opportunity to gain share.

Lasser notes that despite being the leader in the sector, it only has ~10% of the market. "We expect that it will consolidate the market over time," he said.

"DKS recently increased its credit line to $1bn, we estimate it will have $320 mm in cash at the end of FY'15, and it didn't repurchase any stock in 2Q (we model only $50 mm in buybacks in 2H'15). Based on such, we think DKS has ample resources to further its strategy of serving more customers from more locations."
