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 has outperformed the industry in a year, courtesy of its focus on store growth initiatives, ONETractor plan and investment in everyday businesses. The company delivered solid third-quarter 2018 results, which marked an earnings and sales beat in four of the last five quarters. Results gained from robust comps performance driven by ongoing efforts to build customer loyalty and enhance digital capabilities. Moreover, the company’s upbeat outlook for 2018 drives optimism. Further, Tractor Supply is set to gain from robust omni-channel efforts and rewards program. It is also working to strike a balance between initiatives, and investments in stores and distribution centers with strict cost disciplines and operational efficiencies. However, higher SG&A expenses are weighing on margins, which might hurt the company’s profitability. Stiff industry competition and volatility in raw material prices are additional headwinds." (12/31/2018)
- 2. Wells Fargo & Co analysts commented, "We believe TSCO’s Q3 results exceeded lofty expectations, with 5.1% comps (vs. +1.9% consensus), a 9c EPS beat (vs. our model), and a 2.4% increase in FY18 EPS guidance. Q3 sales growth of +9.3% well exceeded our +5.2% estimate, driven by a +5.1% comp (vs. ~4% buyside) that accelerated 390bps on a 2year basis (lapping hurricane driven +6.6%). Gross margins contracted (16bps vs. our 10bps estimate) to 34.7% owing to higher freight/fuel costs, but solid topline flow through drove better than expected SG&A (+35bps vs. our +55bps model). EBIT margins of +8.1% fell 47bps (vs. our 71bps) and EPS of $0.95 exceeded our model by +9c (driven largely by higher sales and a 1c tax benefit)." (10/25/2018)
