Domino’s Pizza (DPZ)

Anderson said:

“We maintain our Hold rating on Domino’s Pizza (DPZ), though raise our price target to $285, from $270 ahead of the company’s release of 2Q18 (June) earnings on July 19, 2018. Although we maintain our in-line 2Q18 EPS estimate of $1.74, we raise our 2018 EPS estimate to $8.38, from $8.32 (vs. $8.31 consensus), and our 2019 EPS estimate to $9.88, from $9.66 (vs. $9.62 consensus) amid fresh concerns at peer Papa John’s (PZZA—NR) and the likelihood of accelerated market share gains in the next few quarters. DPZ’s positive fundamentals warrant a premium multiple, in our view, but we believe these positives have been priced into shares.”

According to TipRanks.com, Anderson is a top 100 analyst with an average return of 14.4% and a 74.5% success rate. Anderson covers the Services sector, focusing on stocks such as Dave & Busters Entertainment, Good Times Restaurants Inc, and Dine Brands Global Inc.
