Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about Sally Beauty Holdings stock:

" (7/18/2017)
• 2. Morgan Stanley analysts commented, "We are lowering our bear case (from $20 to $15) more than our bull case (from $32 to $30) to reflect a slightly worse risk/reward skew. Q1 results were weak which wasn't a big surprise. EPS missed ($0.39 vs. Street $0.45) and comps were light (+0.4% vs. Street +1.5%, including SBS comps of -0.6% vs. Street +0.9%). The stock was reflecting this, having fallen ~13% since December 8th. The downward revision to FY17 guidance (EBIT dollars expected to be up LSDs to MSDs vs. MSDs previously) was also not a surprise. Newly announced cost savings ($30-$32 million pre-tax or $0.13-$0.14) will cushion FY17 EPS and should limit the near-term downside risk to the shares." (2/3/2017)
