UBS maintains a 'Neutral' on Saks Inc. (NYSE: SKS) price target lowered from $12 to $11.
Analyst, Michael Binetti, said, "1Q EPS of $0.19 was in line with our estimate and above Street at $0.18. We are reducing our 2QE and 2012E EPS based on slightly worse-than-expected 1Q women’s fashion apparel trends, and related add’l markdowns to clear product in 2Q. We are trimming our 2QE EPS to ($0.08) from ($0.05) to reflect greater GM contraction (UBSe -110bp vs -10bp prior). We are also lowering our 2012 same-store sales estimates to +5.2% from +6.6%, and are trimming our 2012 EPS estimate to $0.48 from $0.51." (FY13 from $0.58 to $0.56)
