-- 独立系調査会社CFRAは、に対し、以下の調査レポートを提供しました。CFRAのアナリストは、以下のように見解をまとめています。2027年のPERを11.8倍と想定し、10年先の予想PER9.8倍を上回ったことから、12ヶ月目標株価を25ドル引き上げ、170ドルとします。2026年のEPS予想は13.85ドルから13.40ドルに、2027年のEPS予想は15.00ドルから14.35ドルにそれぞれ下方修正します。しかしながら、目標株価と投資判断は「売り」から「中立」に引き上げます。今朝、PAGは第1四半期の調整後EPSを3.05ドルと発表しました。これは市場予想の2.88ドルを上回り、市場予想の3.59ドル(15%減)を上回りました。予想を上回る業績は、売上高が1.1%減の78億6000万ドル(市場予想を1億5000万ドル上回る)、粗利益率が10ベーシスポイント低下して16.5%(市場予想を10ベーシスポイント下回る)となったものの、予想を上回る売上高が牽引した。当社は引き続き同社株のバリュエーションは割高であり、自動車販売業界では他の銘柄を優先すると考えているが、PAGは国際展開が著しいため、為替変動が収益面で大きな追い風となり、市場予想を上回る業績を達成した。さらに、同社は引き続き自社株買いと配当の形で株主に現金を還元しており、需要関連の逆風の中でEPSを支えるのに役立っている。

Research Alert: Cake: Q1 Beat On Cheesecake Factory Strength; Margins Stable
CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:CAKE posted Q1 adjusted EPS of $1.05, up 13% Y/Y and beating the $1.01 consensus estimate, while total revenue of $979M, up 5.6%, also beat the $965M consensus. Adjusted operating income of $57M (up 7%) exceeded the $55M estimate, with operating margins stable at 5.8% despite food and labor cost inflation of 5% each. This marks the third consecutive quarter of margin stability, demonstrating operational leverage as management's staff retention and supply chain initiatives continue to offset volatile costs, with results exceeding expectations despite weather-related impacts. Management reaffirmed guidance to open up to 26 new restaurants in 2026, including up to six Cheesecake Factory locations and multiple North Italia, Flower Child, and FRC concepts. The company maintained strong liquidity of $601.6M, with no outstanding debt and returned capital through $19.2M in share repurchases and a $0.30 quarterly dividend, reflecting confidence in cash generation.
Research Alert: Eg Posts Mixed Q1 Results Amid Restructuring
CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:EG reported Q1 operating EPS of $16.08 versus $6.45 a year ago, exceeding our $15.27 estimate and the $13.96 consensus view. Operating revenues declined 4.4% on a 7.2% drop in earned premiums and 15% rise in investment income, while the combined ratio improved dramatically to 91.2% from 102.7%. We applaud EG's strategic restructuring, including the sale of renewal rights to its retail commercial insurance business to focus on its core reinsurance operations, which account for over 75% of its premium base. EG expects pretax charges of $250-350M over 2025-2026 and has entered an adverse development cover transaction covering $5.4B of liability reserves. However, we remain concerned that becoming a pure-play reinsurer may not expand valuation multiples given EG's mixed underwriting track record. We see execution risk in this strategy, particularly amid a softening reinsurance pricing environment. Despite the Q1 EPS beat, we remain cautious at this juncture.
Research Alert: Flowserve: Cut Sales Outlook Overshadows Q1 Beat
CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:FLS delivered a Q1 beat with adjusted EPS of $0.85 (+18.1% Y/Y), exceeding consensus by $0.05. The beat was driven by sustained margin expansion of 230 bps to 15.1%, resulting from pricing execution and 80/20 efficiency initiatives. However, total sales declined 6.7% due to Middle East headwinds. Bookings showed a favorable mix shift toward higher-margin aftermarket services; aftermarket bookings declined just 1.2% to $680M, while original equipment bookings fell 13% to $468M. Additionally, FLS secured over $110M in nuclear bookings, continuing momentum in this strategic long-cycle market. Management reaffirmed its full-year 2026 adjusted EPS guidance of $4.00-$4.20. It also updated organic sales growth expectations to a range of (1%) to +2%, from the prior +1% to +3% range. The US-Iran conflict created a ~$50M headwind to bookings and a $25M impact to sales, resulting in a $9M reduction in operating income. An unexpected tariff recovery, however, supported the guidance reiteration.
