XOOM CORPORATION(XOOM) : Analyst Wayne Johnson tells salesforce XOOM handily outpaced his/Street's expectations in what is generally co.'s weakest quarter, which should bode well for current reporting period, seasonal high point. Sees XOOM as one of the most attractive stocks in his coverage universe due to 20%+ long-term organic revenue growth profile; above-peer gross margins; potential to further penetrate existing corridors and expand internationally; and ability to more effectively manage compliance expenses/procedures (vs. store-front competitors). Has $33 price target.
SKYWORKS SOLUTIONS INC.(SWKS) : Analyst Rick Schafer tells salesforce SWKS posted Q2 rev./EPS of $481M/$0.62 vs. Street's $470M/$0.59 forecast. Notes Q3 guidance of $535M/$0.73 well above Street's prior $488M/$0.63 est. thanks to increased dollar content across multiple LTE (Long-Term Evolution) platforms, demand for 802.11ac solutions in home, enterprise, penetration of adjacent markets. With its systems-level approach, says SWKS distancing itself from smaller competitors, capitalizing on increasing RF/analog connectivity/ complexity/content (mobile & non-mobile). Raises $42 target to $50.
MANPOWERGROUP INC.(MAN) : Analyst Toby Sommer says the key takeaway from MAN's Q1 report is that demand is improving. This queues up staffing stocks to perform well in 2014, from his perspective. Says MAN's perch is unrivaled to develop a global view. Raises his $4.75 EPS '14 est. to $5.11 on higher revenue, op. margin assumptions. Boosts $80 target price to $86 based on continued cyclical recovery in Europe, though he notes smaller relative opportunity for incremental internal costs cuts keep him at a neutral rating. Looks to get constructive on MAN shares on pullback to mid-$70 range.
