Citi看好ULTA美妝股 助力超預期盈利




這隻美容股有望超越收益預期:花旗

Investing.com — 花旗分析師對Ulta Beauty(NASDAQ:ULTA)在12月5日即將公佈的第三季度收益報告持樂觀態度,並在週五的報告中表示,預計該公司將超過市場共識的每股收益(EPS)預期。

花旗預測每股收益為4.69美元,而市場共識預期為4.49美元。該行表示,預期的超出主要來自於可比銷售表現強勁以及稍微改善的毛利率。

花旗指出:“ULTA面臨來自類別趨勢疲弱和競爭加劇的逆風(例如KSS的Sephora、AMZN以及TGT的ULTA),這使得今年吸引顧客變得困難。” 然而,該行認為第三季度的趨勢與第二季度相比並沒有惡化(或改善),預計管理層將縮小2024財年的每股收益指引範圍,消除最壞情況的可能性,並暗示第四季度的每股收益指引將與共識一致。

目前的指引範圍為22.60美元至23.50美元,預計將調整為22.90美元至23.50美元,這意味著第四季度的收益範圍為6.44美元至7.04美元,與共識的6.80美元相符。

花旗補充道:“我們認為可比趨勢的穩定是一個輕微的正面信號,因為這表明對達成2025年目標的信心增加。” 分析師將Ulta的目標價從345美元上調至390美元,這反映了對2024和2025財年的更高預測。他們預計2024和2025財年的每股收益分別為23.18美元和22.68美元,較之前的預測22.95美元和20.75美元有所上調。

該行還強調,Ulta的交易倍數為18倍的2025年收益,提供了平衡的風險/回報,尤其是在投資者情緒偏向負面時。“我們相信,隨著管理層已經提供了初步的2025年指引,目前的趨勢似乎也沒有進一步惡化,一些投資者對持有ULTA的意願有所增加,”花旗指出。

這篇分析報告顯示出Ulta Beauty的潛力,尤其是在面對市場競爭和類別趨勢的挑戰下,仍能保持穩定的表現。值得注意的是,儘管面臨逆風,但花旗對其未來的預測依然樂觀,顯示出市場對該品牌的信心。

這反映了當前消費者對美容產品需求的堅持,特別是在經濟波動的背景下,品牌的定位和市場策略將在未來的季度中扮演重要角色。投資者應該密切關注Ulta在即將公布的財報中是否能夠實現這些預測,並考慮這些因素對整體市場情緒的影響。

Two playful cats, one sleek black and one fluffy ginger, are joyfully interacting on a bustling Hong Kong street at sunset. They leap and tumble among vivid neon signs, glowing red lanterns, and traditional market stalls. The scene is bustling with locals and dotted with elements of Hong Kong architecture, such as narrow alleyways, decorative shopfronts, and overhead laundry lines. Warm golden light reflects off the wet cobblestone street, casting dramatic shadows. The atmosphere is lively yet whimsical, capturing the vibrant urban spirit and blending realistic feline anatomy with a touch of enchanting artistry. Rendered in hyper-detailed, cinematic style with rich colors and dynamic composition. Generate an ultra-realistic, highly ultra-detailed, 8k resolution with 1080x1080 pixel portrait of me using the uploaded image for reference (preserved the likeness and the original face for reference) of a cinematic studio portrait of a woman seated on a simple wooden chair with a minimalist design, positioned slightly to the left of the frame. She is captured in a contemplative pose, with her body turned to the left, her left arm resting gracefully on the back of the chair, and her right hand gently touching her face near her lips, conveying a sense of introspection and elegance. Her long, wavy hair cascades naturally over her shoulders, framing her face and adding softness to the composition. She wears an oversized, textured knit sweater that slips off her shoulders, exposing her collarbones and upper chest, emphasizing a relaxed and intimate mood. Her legs are bare, with her right foot flat on the ground and her left knee slightly raised, creating a dynamic line that guides the viewer’s eye through the composition. *** The background is a seamless, deep charcoal or dark brown studio backdrop, providing a rich, neutral setting that enhances the dramatic lighting. The lighting setup features a single, soft yet directional light source positioned to the left of the subject, casting gentle, sculptural shadows that highlight the contours of her face, shoulders, and arms, while creating a subtle gradient across her form. The light accentuates the texture of her sweater and the natural shine of her hair, adding depth and dimension to the image. The color palette is monochromatic with warm, muted tones—shades of gray, brown, and beige—contributing to a timeless, artistic aesthetic. The image is shot with a professional full-frame camera using an 85mm or 50mm lens at a wide aperture (f/1.8 to f/2.😎 to achieve a shallow depth of field, ensuring the subject is in sharp focus while the background remains softly blurred. The resolution is ultra-high, capturing every detail from the fine texture of her sweater to the subtle expression of her pose. The overall style is elegant, contemplative, and refined, emphasizing mood and atmosphere over overt glamour. Post-processing is minimal, maintaining natural skin tones, enhancing contrast and clarity, and preserving the authenticity of the scene. This portrait embodies a delicate balance between simplicity and emotional depth, making it suitable for fine art, editorial, or fashion photography.
