October 8, 2009 9:14 AM EDT

Wedbush Morgan upgrades Acuity Brands (NYSE: AYI) from Neutral to Outperform. Price target increased from $35 to $43.

Wedbush analyst says, "Raising FY10 estimates for revenue from residential and energy efficiency. Around $22M of remaining savings from prior restructuring supports our FY10 EPS estimates. We believe Acuity’s view of (15%) FY10 construction market growth omits benefits from residential growth, management’s expectations of share gains, or any Stimulus impact."
