Needham & Company maintains a 'Strong Buy' on Kid Brands (NYSE: KID) price target of $8.00.
Analyst, Sean McGowan, said, "We are expecting KID to report 1Q sales of $56.0 million vs. $59.8 million last year, with surprises more likely to be on the negative side. KID continues to work with retailers to reduce retail inventories of slow-moving products, and we do not expect YoY sales increases until late in the year."
"We believe that if sales can begin showing growth later this year, and EPS can get to an annualized rate of about $0.60 (our estimate for 2013), KID can sell
at about $8 per share, a P/E of about 13x our 2013 EPS estimate, and an EV/EBITDA multiple of less than 8x."
