Wells Fargo Starts Cabela's (CAB) at Outperform; Well Insulated From Amazon (AMZN), Plus Many Catalysts Ahead

Article Stock Quotes (2) Comments (0)

Wells Fargo initiates coverage on Cabela's (NYSE: CAB) with an Outperform. PT range $42-44.

Wells analyst said, "We believe Cabela's is well insulated from Amazon (Nasdaq: AMZN) with a unique market niche and high percentage of private label and exclusive products that have fostered an extremely passionate customer base. We see Cabela's accelerating square footage growth to 10% in 2012 and 12-13% thereafter, which should drive sustainable 18-20% earnings growth, and yet the shares only trade at 14.7x 2012E EPS."

Other highlighted points: 1) Direct Business Turnaround Could Produce Meaningful Upside; 2) Significant, Underappreciated Gross Margin Opportunities Ahead; and 3) Finance Business Misunderstood And Undervalued, In Our View.
