Jefferies Thinks Amira Nature’s Stock is Going to Recover


Jefferies analyst Akshay Jagdale maintained a Buy rating on Amira Nature (ANFI) today and set a price target of $6. The company’s shares opened today at $0.74, close to its 52-week low of $0.62.

Jagdale observed:

“We recently met with mgmt & have reviewed FY18 results as presented in the 20F. FY18 results were well below expectations driven in part by two unusual, one-time issues. The main issue is that of liquidity exacerbated by tight credit conditions in India. Mgmt is working on several options simultaneously to remedy its liquidity situation but until a solution is reached the stock will likely continue to trade below intrinsic value.”

According to TipRanks.com, Jagdale is a 4-star analyst with an average return of 3.1% and a 50.8% success rate. Jagdale covers the Consumer Goods sector, focusing on stocks such as Lamb Weston Holdings, McCormick & Company, and Pilgrim’s Pride.
