In a report released yesterday, Ian Zaffino from Oppenheimer maintained a Hold rating on Spectrum Brands Holdings (SPB). The company’s shares closed yesterday at $65.75.
Zaffino observed:
“Adjusted EBITDA of $115.6M was relatively in line with our/Street’s $115.2M/$114.8M estimates, as strength in H&G and HHI was offset by softness in HPC and Pet. The company reiterated F2019 guidance, calling for adjusted EBITDA of $560M-$580M. 2H19 should ramp as HHI and H&G enter seasonally stronger quarters and HPC laps tough comps. SPB generated $3B of cash proceeds from the asset sale, of which ~$2.4B was allocated toward deleveraging and ~$250M of shares (~4.6M shares) were repurchased in F2Q19. The company has an additional $750M remaining on its three-year buyback program. Maintain Perform.”
According to TipRanks.com, Zaffino is a 4-star analyst with an average return of 3.7% and a 55.7% success rate. Zaffino covers the Services sector, focusing on stocks such as Servicemaster Global Holdings, Wyndham Hotels & Resorts Inc, and Wyndham Destinations Inc.
