Nomura Securities cut estimates and its price target on Neutral-rated priceline.com (NASDAQ: PCLN) from $740 to $700 following Q2 results and lower guidance.
Analyst Brian Nowak comments: PCLN attributed the 2Q/3Q softness to continued decelerating and deteriorating European trends. PCLN also played-off the potential impact of incremental competition PCLN also played-off the potential impact of incremental competition. We note that PCLN is seeing deceleration in Europe and the U.S. We continue to like PCLN’s global share-gaining model, but remain on the side-lines until we can find a more material source of incremental earnings upside.
The firm cut from FY12E EPS from $32.90 to $31.40; F13E EPS from $40.98 to $38.19.
