Goldman Sachs Downgrades Holly Energy Partners (HEP) to Sell

Goldman Sachs downgraded Holly Energy Partners (NYSE: HEP) from Neutral to Sell with a price target of $35.00 in assumed coverage.

The firm said current valuation implies a high-single digit distribution growth trajectory while they see a mid-single digit forecast. The firm's 2013/14 EPS estimates are 2%/6% below consensus.

"While HEP offers cash flow stability aided by a strong contract structure, we prefer units with higher growth potential given its premium valuation (5.1% yield vs. 6.1% MLP average yield)," the analyst comments.
