KeyBanc Starts TreeHouse Foods (THS) at Overweight

KeyBanc initiated coverage on TreeHouse Foods (NYSE: THS) with a Overweight rating and a price target of $110, implying 20% upside. Analyst Brett Andress sees earning strength.

"We view THS as a best-in-class operator within our packaged foods universe and see upside to shares via the realization of significant earnings accretion potential from the recent Private Brands acquisition ($7.00+ in earnings power), backed by market leading exposure to the favorable private label grocery category, a rather benign cost environment that is supportive of margin visibility and recent coffee and FX headwinds that should manifest into tailwinds over the next 12 months. All of this is supported by THS's track record of conservatively managing Street expectations," said Andress.
