Jefferies Downgrades Red Robin Gourmet Burgers (RRGB) to Hold

Jefferies downgraded Red Robin Gourmet Burgers (NASDAQ: RRGB) from Buy to Hold with a price target of $32.00 (from $26.00) in assumed coverage.

The firm comments, "We think ests & valuation fairly reflect improving new store economics & visibility of EPS upside in '12 as cost efficiencies materialize & offset a choppier sales environment. However, SSS remain the key driver behind LT EPS growth & valuations, and although we see a number of potential catalysts for '13, we currently have limited visibility of SSS momentum."
