Goldman Sachs downgraded Janus Capital (NYSE: JNS) from Neutral to Sell with a price target of $7.00 (from $8.00).
The firm expects JNS shares to underperform given: (1) Soft relative equity fund performance and tougher INTECH performance comparisons suggest more outflows; (2) pressure on revenues and op. margin from negative performance fees; and
(3) we see multiple compression as investors refocus on soft fundamentals as technical tailwind from Dai-ichi’s purchase of a 20% stake rolls off.
Goldman lowered 2012/2013/2014 EPS estimates to $0.56/$0.53/$0.60 from $0.56/$0.60/$0.71 on modest flow/margin expectations, 9-15% below consensus.
