Canaccord Genuity reiterated a buy rating on Generac Holdings (NYSE: GNRC) and raised its price target to $31.00 (from $28.00).

Generac Holdings expects strong financial results for the third quarter of 2012, and as a result raised its outlook for full-year 2012 (Res: $295-300M/ EPS $0.72-0.77 vs. street at $236.9M/$0.46). As a result, full-year sales are now expected to grow in the low-30% range, noted a report by analyst at Canaccord Genuity.

“A meaningful increase in near-term expectations demonstrates the power of the platform (and earning some multiple expansion),” said analyst John Quealy.

“Even with tough comps in ’13, Generac’s very strong FCF ($200M in ’12), new products and geographic expansion keep us bullish,” he said.
