On Wednesday, Jefferies maintained a Buy rating on BellRing Brands (NYSE:BRBR) but reduced the price target to $86.00 from the previous $90.00. The company’s strong performance is evident in its impressive 21% revenue growth over the last twelve months, according to InvestingPro data. The firm pointed to a strong start to the year for BellRing Brands, citing several demand drivers including display enhancements, advertising, and packaging changes that are expected to boost the company’s performance.
Despite an anticipated slower second half of the year due to known shipment and cost phasing, Jefferies highlighted that the strong consumption trends indicate a healthy underlying demand for BellRing Brands’ products. This demand is expected to accelerate moving forward. InvestingPro analysis reveals that three analysts have recently revised their earnings expectations upward, suggesting growing confidence in the company’s outlook.
The adjustment in the price target comes as BellRing Brands’ shares experienced a 4% decline. With the stock currently trading at $74.92, between its 52-week range of $48.06 to $80.67, Jefferies sees this dip in share price as an opportunity for investors. The firm reiterated its confidence in the company’s prospects by reiterating a Buy rating, aligning with the broader analyst consensus of 1.53 (where 1 is Strong Buy).
The research firm’s comments suggest that while there may be a perceived slowdown in the latter half of the year, the overall market demand for BellRing Brands remains robust. This perspective is based on the company’s solid start to the year and the upcoming demand drivers that are soon to take effect.
Investors have been given a signal that despite the recent decrease in share value, the company’s stock is still seen as a valuable buy according to Jefferies. The firm’s maintained Buy rating and adjusted price target reflect their outlook on the company’s future performance.
