FBR Capital downgraded GSE Holdings (NYSE: GSE) from Outperform to Market Perform with a price target of $6.00 (from $11.50), citing: (1) the recent departure of the CEO, (2) the pending search for a replacement, (3) limited company guidance regarding the near-term financial outlook, and (4) uncertain end-market demand.

Analyst Alex Rygiel notes, "However, we do believe the company will continue to make progress with its strategy of focusing on highly engineered, value-added products in new markets, such as mining, fracking, and coal ash, while also expanding capacity in China. Yet, these positive developments may continue to be overshadowed by the economic turmoil in Europe and increased competition for
commodity-based products in North America. We will review our rating upon the
announcement of a new, permanent CEO."
