• 2. Imperial Capital analysts commented, "Golf Datatech recently released February U.S. retail market share data. While February is not a major month, Callaway did show strong share growth. In woods, ELY grew share 1590bp year-over-year (yoy) to 36.2%. In balls and irons ELY earned 14.6% and 25.8%, respectively, versus 12.0% and 22.5% yoy. Callaway lost share in the much smaller wedges and putters categories. We calculate significant growth in overall hard-goods share. Also positive, while golf retail sales were relatively flat yoy, per unit pricing grew in every category." (3/21/2017)
• 3. Pacific Crest analysts commented, "We are increasingly positive on ELY following recent channel checks as well as Golf Datatech data, which points to very strong sell-through of its Epic driver and fairway woods. We believe the impressive Epic performance is not fully reflected in the current share price and we would be buyers at current levels. To that end, we are increasing our 1Q17 revenue and earnings estimates and believe there is solid upside potential to current consensus numbers for 2017. As such, we would be buyers of shares at current levels and maintain our OW rating and $16 PT." (3/21/2017)
