加拿大皇家銀行表示，瓦爾沃林第二季業績可望超越預期，主要得益於強勁的同店銷售和定價策略。

-- 加拿大皇家銀行資本市場（RBC Capital Markets）週一發布的報告稱，瓦爾沃林（Valvoline，股票代碼：VVV）第二財季業績預計將超出華爾街預期，這主要得益於強勁的同店銷售增長和價格策略，這些因素應能抵消不斷上漲的原材料成本。 該機構預計瓦爾沃林第二財季同店銷售額將成長5.7%，調整後息稅折舊攤提前利潤（EBITDA）將達到1.26億美元，均高於市場普遍預期。報告指出，強勁的需求和價格上漲動能應能抵銷基礎油價格上漲的影響，而該機構認為基礎油價格上漲「已經過高」。 展望未來，瓦爾沃林被認為能夠有效應對通膨壓力，預計價格策略將在很大程度上抵消基礎油成本的上漲。該機構表示，目前的業績指引可能較為保守，這意味著瓦爾沃林有可能發布「超出預期並上調」的業績指引，這可能會提振市場情緒。 報告稱，中期來看，瓦爾沃林在出售其全球產品部門後，預計將受益於更強勁的增長和更高的利潤率，預計在持續擴張的同時，實現兩位數中段的銷售增長「是可以實現的」。 加拿大皇家銀行（RBC）對勝牌（Valvoline）的評級為“跑贏大盤”，目標價為46美元。
