Janney Montgomery Scott maintains a 'Buy' on Pacific Sunwear of California (NASDAQ: PSUN) price target lowered from $4 to $3.

JMS analyst says, "PSUN reported 4Q11 LPS of ($0.19) pro forma versus consensus at ($0.22) and the company's issued guidance range of ($0.18) to ($0.27)...Management guided 1Q12 LPS below the Street to the range of ($0.26) to ($0.34) pro forma versus consensus at ($0.24). 1Q12 comp is expected to be in the range of -4% to +1%. Clearly the turn is not at hand, and the visibility on when the business will begin to improve is very low. On the 4Q11 earnings call, management stated that quarter-to-date sales are currently at the lower end of the company's guidance range."

"Based on our belief that the business turn has been pushed out at least a year, we are lowering our FY12 and FY13 LPS estimates. Our FY12 LPS estimate goes to ($0.72) from ($0.43) (versus the Street at ($0.46)), and our FY13 LPS estimate goes to ($0.39) from $0.02 (versus the Street at ($0.22))."
