Goldman Sachs maintained their Conviction Buy and $200 price target on Ralph Lauren (NYSE: RL).

"Consistent with initial guidance, we believe FY13 is shaping up to be a tale of two halves with 1H lapping tough top-line compares and 2H benefitting from margin opportunity from lower commodity costs that is being reinvested to build a long-term franchise in China. With 1Q beat, 2Q now recalibrated, and 2H set to accelerate, we recommend investors capitalize on the recent pullback and buy this global franchise," said analyst Adrianne Shapira.

She also maintained FY13E/FY14/E/FY15E EPS of $8.25/$9.60/$11.25.
