Goldman Sachs reiterated their Buy rating and raised their price target on Mosaic (NYSE: MOS) from $67 to $71 following weaker-than-expected Q3 results. The firm said the stock should be bought on weakness.
The miss was driven by weaker Phosphate margins with high-cost raw materials taking longer to flow through. They cut their Q4 EPS estiamtes from $1.52 to $1.00, to reflect weaker revenue guidance in both P and K with near-term inventory pressures taking a bit longer to resolve.
Goldman is maintaining their bullish view on the stock based on a "positive earnings inflection expected in FY13 and the opportunity to unlock value over time".
