Canaccord Genuity LED and Lighting Monthly: A Light Read
Analyst, Jonathan Dorsheimer, said, "...the silver lining to the difficult environment is that LED pricing is falling faster than predicted given the current oversupply. These trends should accelerate solid state lighting, and we are already beginning to see the early signs of this acceleration.

"We believe that LEDs will help accelerate Acuity’s traditional sales over time while growing to become accretive to the business model. As such, we see the potential for $3.50 to $4.00 in earnings power per share in 2013/2014 as the secular trend starts to manifest. We remain aggressive buyers on pullbacks..."
