Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about C.H. Robinson Worldwide stock:

• 1. According to Zacks Investment Research, "Shares of C.H. Robinson have outperformed its industry in the last three months. We are encouraged by the company's efforts to expand globally through mergers. The latest acquisition of Milgram & Company will boost  the company's global presence and will be accretive in 2018. Last year the company acquired APC Logistics. This deal has boosted C.H. Robinson’s presence in the Austalia- New Zealand region. We are also impressed by the company’s efforts to reward shareholders. At its investor day in May 2017, the company said that it still expects earnings per share to grow at over 10% in the long term. However, the company has been struggling on the bottom line front due to higher costs. In fact, headwinds like high costs are likely to hurt the bottom line going forward." (9/26/2017)
• 2. Stifel Nicolaus analysts commented, "Our 2017, 2018, and 2019 EPS estimates remain unchanged at $3.70, $4.00, and $4.35 while our rating remains Hold, primarily on the basis of what we believe to be a reasonably full and fair valuation. Our 12-month price target increases from $78 (or 18.0x our 2019 EPS estimate of $4.35) to $83 (or 19.0x our reiterated 2019 EPS estimate of $4.35). Our increased 12-month price target reflects our view that management is fully reenergized, largely thanks to the arrival of externally focused CFO Andy Clarke, and the potential the company possesses to continue to take domestic and global market share due to its industry leading technology, processes, and people. While our rating remains Hold due to the limited upside potential available over the coming 12 months, we would be inclined revisit our rating should the stock retreat a little over 10% or reset to $70 or lower."
