Jefferies raised estimates and its price target on Panera Bread (NASDAQ: PNRA) from $165 to $167.

The firm comments, "While investors may be paying more attention to the opaque dynamics of how PNRA gets its SSS (not enough from traffic?), we think recent trends don't paint the full picture for '12 as new traffic drivers have not yet rolled. Rather, we'd focus on what is becoming more clear: accelerating eff. company unit gr. (10% in '12, following 12-13% in '10/11). We see this opportunity continuing for yrs to come & may not be reflected in ests."

Q1 EPS goes from $1.28 to $1.33, FY12 from $5.48 to $5.54 and FY13 from $6.60 to $6.67.
