Nomura Securities maintains a 'Buy' on PetSmart (NASDAQ: PETM) price target of $60.00.
Nomura analyst, Aram Rubinson, said, "PetSmart will release its Q3 results on Wednesday (11/16) after the close. Consensus is now in line with our expectations ($0.48) after the Company updated guidance at its Analyst Day on October 13. As we look ahead to Q4, however, we are $0.05 ahead of consensus. While the market is in line with PETM’s full-year guidance, we believe that will prove conservative. Not only do we see upside to near-term forecasts, but also the stable growth of the category together with improving execution suggests that EPS growth of 20-25% is possible over the coming 3-5 years."
