Jefferies reiterates a 'Buy' on Francesca's Holdings (NASDAQ: FRAN) price target of $38.00.

Analyst, Randal J. Konik, said, "FRAN continues to post solid results as seen by the recent 1Q pre-announcement in May of better than expected sales and earnings. We continue to think this fast-fashion retailer is well positioned in the current environment and expect it to continue gaining market share while expanding its footprint and investing in improved technology."

Valuation is attractive on 1) early stage of growth vs. peers; 2) margins over 20%; 3) high visibility for annual growth/earnings trajectory; and 4) strong returns on investment.
