Deutsche Bank initiates coverage on Zoltek (Nasdaq: ZOLT) with a Hold. Price target $8.

Deutsche analyst says, "We believe Zoltek, an industry-leading manufacturer of carbon fiber that is levered to the wind power market, will benefit from the increased adoption of carbon fiber over the next several years. That said, we are initiating coverage with a Hold rating as we believe near-term trends may prove more difficult than currently discounted by investors...We expect ongoing cost and performance advancements in the carbon fiber market, along with Zoltek’s low-cost competitive advantage, to drive healthy longer-term growth for the company. We believe the adoption of carbon fiber in the wind power market will continue to drive near- and medium-term results, while other end markets like auto, deep water drilling, aerospace, CNG, etc. could provide long-term upside to Zoltek and other commercial-grade carbon fiber manufacturers."
