RBC Capital Markets raised its price target on Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce (CM.TO, CM) to $167 from $147.
Analyst Darko Mihelic maintained an Outperform rating on shares of the Canadian bank following its Q2 results.
"Results were higher than expected across the operating segments except for Canadian Personal and Business Banking," Mihelic said in a note to clients.
"CM made several announcements this quarter including an intended NCIB, an agreement to sell its stake in CIBC Caribbean, and a definitive agreement for a tuck-in wealth strategic partnership / minority interest acquisition," the analyst said.
"We mainly model higher impaired PCLs in Canada and we reflect the planned sale of CM's stake in CIBC Caribbean; our estimates decrease."
