Deutsche Bank downgraded RailAmerica Inc. (NYSE: RA) from Buy to Hold. PT $15.
Deutsche analyst says, "We downgraded RA on valuation as we no longer see sufficient upside potential to merit a Buy-rating after yesterday’s 8.5% move (vs. a 0.1% decline in the S&P 500). While pleased with RA’s Q4 results, we reduced our 2011 EPS estimate due to lower-than-expected non-freight revenue guidance. Although we see potential positive catalysts (a recent contract renegotiation [which will aid both pricing and improve fuel cost recovery] and a $50 million buyback authorization), we believe shares are trading closer to fair value. (FY11 EPS lowered from $0.85 to $0.75)"
