Jefferies maintains a 'Buy' on Lance, Inc. (NASDAQ: LNCE) price target of $30.00.
Analyst, Scott A. Mushkin, said, "LNCE’s announcement of its acquisition of Snack Factory looks to be quite positive as it adds a high-growth, high-margin brand to further complement LNCE’s existing core brand portfolio. In addition, we anticipate Snyder’s-Lance will be able to leverage Snack Factory’s direct model, as well as LNCE’s strong distribution platform over time, to enhance channel and household penetration, translating to better sales and earnings."
FY12 EPS estimate raised from $0.94 to $0.95 and FY13 from $1.21 to $1.31.
