The firm comments, "After underperforming Tools peers by 1000bp YTD, we see a turnaround story for 2013 with healthy organic growth, margin expansion, and an attractive risk/reward profile coupled with the following catalysts: (1) better-than-expected strength in core end markets, (2) pending detail on long-term margin expansion plans, and (3) low expectations/valuation that sets up a "laggards to leader" trade."
