What are Wall Street analysts saying about Tractor Supply stock?
Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about Tractor Supply stock:
- 1. According to Zacks Investment Research, "Tractor Supply’s focus on store growth initiatives, ONETractor and investment in everyday businesses has helped it surpass the industry in a year’s time. Further, the company is set to gain from solid omni-channel efforts. It is also working to strike a balance between initiatives and investments in stores and distribution centers, with strict cost disciplines and operational efficiencies. While Tractor Supply missed sales and earnings estimates in the first quarter of 2018, both the metrics improved year over year. This was driven by a rise in comps and traffic along with the ongoing efforts to build customer loyalty and enhance digital capabilities. Additionally, management reiterated its guidance for 2018. Despite stiff industry competition and volatility in raw material prices, Tractor Supply remains optimistic about the spring selling season owing to its ONETractor and other initiatives." (7/18/2018)
- 2. Wells Fargo & Co analysts commented, "We are raising our Q2 comp/EPS estimates by +100bps/2c to +4%/$1.62 (vs. +3%/$1.59 Street) reflecting favorable underlying retail trends, improving Q2 weather, and increased confidence in NT execution. With oil prices appreciating, we view TSCO among the few retail beneficiaries with commodity pass-through and exposure to improving markets in TX/OK (14% of stores). We believe these tailwinds, coupled with the benefits of TSCO’s Omnichannel and loyalty initiatives (which are only beginning to take hold) set up potential for multi-year comp improvement. We initiated coverage of TSCO on 4/23 (Take Me Home, Country Roads) in the midst of challenging investor sentiment and ample skepticism around comp acceleration and a FY19 margin inflection."
