-- 獨立研究機構CFRA向提供了以下研究報告。 CFRA分析師的觀點摘要如下：我們維持12個月目標價21美元不變，基於2027財年（截至2月）每股盈餘2.38美元（先前預期為2.36美元；2028財年預期為2.64美元）的8.8倍本益比。該市盈率接近其9.1倍的長期均值，但仍低於其最接近的上市競爭對手克羅格（Kroger）（約13倍）。儘管《通膨削減法案》對藥局業務的不利影響在本財年抑制了同店銷售，但由於產品組合向高利潤率仿製藥的轉變，利潤率有所提高。隨著數位化獲利能力的提升、GLP-1壓力的緩解以及持續推進的生產力提升計劃，利潤率也有望進一步提高。我們預計，受雞蛋價格下跌的影響，5月份季度的同店銷售成長將持續承壓，但成長和獲利能力將在隨後的幾個季度有所改善。我們也認為，ACI在價值方面的投入，包括降低價格和進行有針對性的促銷活動，將在今年逐步推動核心食品雜貨銷售趨勢的改善。我們的「買入」評級反映了兩位數的股東總回報潛力，其中包括股票回購和約4%的股息殖利率。

Research Alert: CFRA Keeps Hold Opinion On Shares Of Otis Worldwide Corporation
CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:We cut our 12-month target to $90 from $100 following Q1 earnings, valuing OTIS shares at 19.6x our 2027 EPS outlook of $4.58 (down from $4.70; 2026 EPS view updated to $4.18 from $4.25), a modest discount to industrial machinery peers' and OTIS's five-year forward multiple average given unclear timing of ongoing margin headwinds. Service margins were disappointing in Q1 (contracting 160 bps to 23%) amid higher labor and material costs that came in above pricing. Weakness in China has yet to stabilize, though as noted in the past, this represents a shrinking area of OTIS's portfolio and will have a more limited effect going forward. Overall, the latest quarter was more of the same (China weakness/New Equipment decline), though with the added concern of margin quality being pressured within Service - the core profit driver for OTIS overall. While efforts to shore up profitability are underway, we see timing of recovery being uncertain.

Petro Rabigh emerged from a loss in the first quarter, while Thob Al Aseel logged a higher net profit and revenue."The reason for net profit reported during the current quarter compared to a net loss recorded in the same quarter of last year was primarily attributable to improved product margins resulting from stronger refined product pricing and higher sales volumes," Petro Rabigh said in its report.Petro Rabigh rose 10% at closing, while Thob Al Aseel ticked down 1.59%.Meanwhile, the local calendar will be mostly empty except for the kingdom's preliminary figures for its GDP growth rate for the first quarter and the M3 money supply and private bank lending data for March on Thursday.

Research Alert: CFRA Maintains Hold Rating On Shares Of United Rentals Inc.
CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:We lift our 12-month target price to $1,100 from $950 following a strong first quarter, valuing shares at 20.5x our 2027 EPS outlook of $54.28 (in line with previous estimate; 2026 EPS also in line). We believe a higher multiple is justified given URI's firming market leadership within an expanding rental equipment industry. A robust Q1 beat enabled URI to raise its full-year revenue guidance to $16.9B-$17.4B and adjusted EBITDA to $7.625B-$7.875B, citing momentum heading into a busy season. With leverage well below historical levels, we believe accretive M&A deals could serve as a potential catalyst for additional guidance increases. Margin compression has been a sticky issue for URI, but Q1 indicated that pricing may have turned around and that headwinds are starting to ease as quarterly results begin to lap when tariff-related inflation began to pick-up. We remain cautious on margins, though are encouraged by signs of stabilization. New project activity is likely supporting pricing trends, in our view.
