Collins Stewart initiates coverage on Williams-Sonoma (NYSE: WSM) with a Buy. PT $55.00.
Collins analyst says, "Williams-Sonoma stands out in the home-furnishings space on the strength of its multichannel, multi-brand platform. The company operates its Williams-Sonoma, Pottery Barn, Pottery Barn Kids, PBteen, and West Elm brands through brick-and-mortar locations and a direct-to-consumer business that marks WSM as the industry’s dominant online retailer, with approximately $1.4B in 2011E online revenues. We estimate that E-commerce sales will climb from 38% of total revenues in FY11 to 47% by FY15. Despite WSM’s significant E-commerce penetration, there is still vast growth potential for the company online...As a result, we expect EPS to double, from $1.95 in FY10 to $3.89 in FY15."
