Roth Capital reiterated a Buy rating on Web.com Group (NASDAQ: WWWW), and raised the price target to $28.00 (from $27.00), following 2Q15 results. Non-GAAP EPS of $0.60 beat consensus of $0.57. WWWW updated guidance for 3Q15 to non-GAAP revenue and EPS in the ranges of $138.5-140mm, with $0.59-0.61 EPS. Full-year guidance now calls for revenue of $554-558mm (up from $549-555mm) with EPS of $2.36-2.42 (up from $2.30-4.41).

Analyst Jeff Martin commented, "2Q15 results beat expectations on continued progress in an increasingly competitive market for Do-it-yourself and domains. We look for continued, gradual improvements in metrics and a return to positive y/y revenue comparisons in 4Q15. Management continues to aggressively de-lever the balance sheet and has $59.2mm remaining under its repurchase authorization. Reiterate Buy."
