Soleil Securities Upgrades Zebra Technologies (ZBRA) to Gradually Accumulate; Valuation Call
Soleil Securities upgrades Zebra Technologies (Nasdaq: ZBRA) from Hold to Gradually Accumulate. Price target increased from $23 to $33.
Soleil analyst says, "Valuation is allowing us to raise the rating to Gradually Accumulate, while improving order trends, mfg outsourcing, new products and market share gains are enabling us to increase our 2010 EPS estimate to $1.51 (vs $1.26 previously); Our early earnings estimate for 2011 is $1.72 per share, a new record...With the shares, adjusted for the $4.20 per share in cash, now trading for only 15.5 times forward estimated earnings of $1.51 per share or 119% of their 13% projected 3-to-5-year EPS growth rate, we are upgrading the shares. Our 12-month price target is now $33 per share and is based on the shares, adjusted for the cash, reaching 19-20 times our 12 month forward earnings estimate. Additional impetus for the rating upgrade is our belief quarterly comparisons will look very good versus depressed prior year figures."
