BofA Securities analyst Bryan Spillane initiates coverage on The Honest Co. (NASDAQ: HNST) with a Neutral rating and a price target of $17.00.

The analyst comments "We Initiate coverage of The Honest Co. (ticker: HNST) with a Neutral rating and $17 PO based on 4.7x 2022 EV/Sales putting it slightly ahead of Household and Personal Care (HPC) peers. HNST has attractive mid-teens sales growth and mid-single digit margin expansion prospects against a backdrop of increased interest in clean and natural
products. This is balanced against a valuation which in our view leaves limited upside dependent on positive earnings revisions."
