What are analysts saying about Lowe's Companies stock?

Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about Lowe's Companies stock:

1. According to Zacks Investment Research, "Lowe’s shares have slid and underperformed the industry in the past six months. In fact, the stock came under pressure after it posted lower-than-expected second-quarter fiscal 2017 results. This was the second quarter in row wherein both the top and bottom lines fell short of the estimate. Nevertheless, both sales and earnings grew year over year, albeit at a rate lower than the preceding quarter. However, comps showed considerable improvement. We believe Lowe’s buyout of Maintenance Supply Headquarters will help strengthen relationship with pro customers. Further, improving job scenario, housing market recovery, merchandising initiatives and post hurricane construction activities along with efforts to enhance omni-channel capabilities bode well. Management expects sales to increase 5% with comps growth of 3.5% during fiscal 2017 but took a conservative stance when it comes to earnings per share and operating margin guidance." (9/21/2017)
2. Instinet analysts commented, "While we are impressed by the solid execution in the quarter and encouraged by the positive reads for the underlying home improvement category, our enthusiasm does not quite match the stock's reaction." (3/2/2017)
3. Jefferies Group LLC analysts commented, "Q4 sales and EPS beat against a tough comparison was encouraging as we continue to see a reversion to the mean in home improvement spending. Shares rose more than expected considering that most investors we spoke to were expecting strength in Q4, following the company's analyst event in Dec, strong vendor and competitor results and strong govt. sales data. We suspect the enthusiasm reflected the narrower comp gap with HD versus recent qtrs." (3/2/2017)
