Canaccord Genuity maintains a 'Buy' on Big Lots (NYSE: BIG) price target of $58.00.
Analyst, Laura Champine, said, "We believe BIG’s improving product assortment will drive traffic and support the company’s SSS momentum. The company should benefit from efforts to shift sales mix to higher-demand categories, broadening its selection of consumables and underpenetrated discretionary segments. At 13x our FY12 EPS estimate and 6x FY12E EV/EBITDA, we don’t believe shares fully reflect the SSS growth we are projecting in FY12 and beyond."
"We estimate BIG will generate FY12 SSS growth of 2.9% on top of +0.1%, which would be the company’s highest full-year increase since FY06...We forecast double-digit bottom-line growth in FY12 and expect EPS to increase at a five-year CAGR of 12%."
