Goldman Sachs downgraded Synchrony Financial (NYSE: SYF) from Conviction Buy to Neutral with a price target of $33.00 (from $44.00).
Analyst Ryan Nash tells clients over the weekend that he believes the company remains one the top secular growth stories as a financial company but consumer credit normalization will most likely weight on results and hinder top-line growth from trickling down to EPS growth in the NT. He expects this normalization to remain a black cloud over the earnings multiple for coming quarters.
FY 2017 EPS estimate falls from $3.05 to $2.62, FY 2018 EPS estimate falls from $3.30 to $3.00 and FY 2019 EPS estimate falls from $3.50 to $3.35
