Wedbush initiates coverage on Peet's Coffee & Tea (NASDAQ: PEET) with an Outperform. PT $83.00.

Analyst, Nick Setyan, said, "We believe Peet’s consensus expectations are poised for upward revisions based on the success of the medium-roast rollout in 2012 and lower coffee bean prices in 2013, leading to an increased valuation premium relative to both Peet’s historical average Forward P/E and to its peers."

"We expect Specialty revenue growth of 18.0% in 2012, led by 23% growth in Grocery, 13% growth in Foodservice, and 1% growth in Home Delivery. We believe the consensus expectation for Specialty growth in 2012 is 16-17%."
