Jefferies raised its estimates and price target on Regal Beloit (NYSE: RBC) from $68 to $72 following Q4 results.
The firm comments, "4Q11 EPS from ops were +44%. Op income was in line; previously we assumed it was above our forecast, but then a LIFO benefit was noted on the call (not in Presser). 4Q11 EPS were better than expected from non-op items. But 1Q12 guidance was above expectations, a surprise given HVAC mix pressures. RBC is beginning to show it has 3 legs to its earnings stool: C&I, HVAC and now acquisition accretion."
The firm raised FY12 EPS from $4.80 to $5.08 and FY13 from $5.84 to $6.00.
