KeyBanc downgraded Cracker Barrel (NASDAQ: CBRL) from Buy to Hold with a price target of $55.00.
KeyBanc analyst says, "While we continue to view CBRL as an attractive long-term story, we believe that upside to our FY12 and FY13 SSS and EPS estimates is unlikely without a sustained turnaround in urban miles driven trends, as reported by the U.S. Department of Transportation, in the coming months. Accordingly, we feel a HOLD rating is presently warranted as shares are trading in line with CBRL's five-year average forward multiples of 11.3x P/E, 6.7x EV/EBITDA and 0.7x EV/Sales."
"Our 2Q12 EPS estimate of $1.09 (which excludes the expected impact of proxy expenses that will hit the quarter) is $0.07 below the current First Call estimate of $1.16 and $0.11 (9%) below the prior year's $1.20 EPS result."
