Jefferies Boosts Numbers on Cogent Communications (CCOI)

Article Stock Quotes (1) Comments (0)

Jefferies raised its price target on Buy-rated Cogent Communications (NASDAQ: CCOI) from $21 to $23.

The firm comments, "With the MegaUpload impact behind it, CCOI reiterated return to historical growth and margin expansion trends. In our view, instituting a recurring dividend (2+% yield) supports our thesis that the LT growth and cash flow generation model remain intact. Additionally, CCOI has significant dry powder in its share buyback plan, which we expect it to use opportunistically."

FY12 EPS goes down from $0.08 to $0.06 and FY13 goes up from $0.54 to $0.58.
