PCLN has been the strongest operator in our Online Travel Agency universe, and the Street continues to have lofty expectations.

"EXPEDIA (Nasdaq: EXPE) intiated with a Neutral rating and a $32 tgt px. High US exposure in an increasingly challenging market and uncertainty in Europe offer limited upside drivers. Our FY’11 and FY’12 revenue / EBITDA / EPS ests are $4.0bn/$1.0bn/$1.96 and $4.5bn/$1.2bn/$2.36, respectively."
"Orbitz (NYSE: OWW) worldwide started with with a Neutral rating and a $2.75 tgt px. OWW has the least-preferred asset mix of our OTA coverage with a heavy skew toward domestic and air. Our FY’11 and FY’12 revenue / EBITDA / EPS ests are $764mn/$124mn/$0.10 and $796mn/$125mn/$0.09, respectively."
