Deutsche Bank Upgrades Hewitt Associates (HEW) to Buy; Valuation attractive for its Steady Profit Growth
Deutsche Bank upgrades Hewitt Associates (NYSE: HEW) to Buy. Price target increased from $35 to $55.
Deutsche analyst says, "We are raising our 1Q EPS from $0.78 to $0.80, and FY10 (YE Sep) from $2.90 to $3.02 (+4%). We think earnings will move higher as the year progresses as revenue growth rebounds and HEW delivers on the operational turnaround within HR BPO and consulting sees a cyclical rebound. At 12.7x cal10 EPS (11.4x P/FCF) we think stock is cheap for a company that can deliver 15% EBIT in FY10E after 25% in FY09."
