Shares of Caribou Coffee (Nasdaq: CBOU) are continuing to underperform the broader stock market Monday despite a reassuring note from William Blair's Sharon Zackfia earlier. The analyst recommended investors buy the stock following a recent 28 percent decline amid concerning results from Green Mountain (Nasdaq: GMCR).

Zackfia noted Caribou currently relies on Green Mountain for about 17 percent of its sales and about 28 percent of 2011 segment-level profit. While both Starbucks (Nasdaq: SBUX) and Dunkin' Brands (Nasdaq: DNKN) receive substantially less from K-Cups, the analyst noted the market is now pricing in "virtually no further K-Cup contribution..." for Caribou.

William Blair maintains an Outperform rating on Caribou shares.

Shares of Caribou Coffee last traded at $12 even, down 0.8 percent from Friday's closing price.
