Hapoalim Securities Initiates Coverage on Sysco (SYY) with a Market Perform
Hapoalim Securities initiates coverage on Sysco (NYSE: SYY) with a Market Perform. Price target $25
Hapoalim analyst says, "While the sales environment in FY09 was undoubtedly the most challenging in SYY's operating history, we do not expect the outlook to improve materially over the foreseeable future. In the context of an unfavorable macro backdrop for foodservice spending in general, we feel that SYY's most profitable customers (full service independent operators) are increasingly vulnerable. Although we don't underestimate management's ability to control expenses, as consumers continue to search for better price/value alternatives (both within food retail and at restaurants) our expectation is that SYY's sales and earnings outlook will remain somewhat pressured in FY10."
