Morgan Stanley analyst Simeon Gutman maintains $AutoZone (AZO.US)$ with a buy rating, and adjusts the target price from $3,038 to $3,125.
According to TipRanks data, the analyst has a success rate of 61.5% and a total average return of 2.8% over the past year.
Furthermore, according to the comprehensive report, the opinions of $AutoZone (AZO.US)$'s main analysts recently are as follows:
AutoZone's Q4 results have not significantly altered the supportive thesis for the stock, which is predicated on the belief that the company can maintain mid-single digit growth in operating income. This growth is expected to be augmented by a comparable reduction in share count, thereby contributing to double-digit growth in earnings per share.
Despite a reduction in estimates, the underlying fundamentals for AutoZone remain largely the same, with the observation that the stock's valuation is reasonable for a company well-situated in a defensive sector anticipated to return to normal levels of top-line growth over time. AutoZone is recognized as a strong compounding entity with the potential to further capture market share within the domestic landscape.
AutoZone's fiscal Q4 outcomes fell short of expectations in terms of both revenue and earnings. It has been observed that the auto parts retail sector is experiencing diminished demand as lower-income consumers adjust their budgets, postponing significant auto maintenance, and reducing discretionary spending on do-it-yourself projects. Nonetheless, it is anticipated that with revised expectations, AutoZone's business model is poised for a resurgence in earnings growth by fiscal 2026.

摩根士丹利分析師Simeon Gutman維持$汽車地帶 (AZO.US)$買入評級，並將目標價從3,038美元上調至3,125美元。
根據TipRanks數據顯示，該分析師近一年總勝率為61.5%，總平均回報率為2.8%。
此外，綜合報道，$汽車地帶 (AZO.US)$近期主要分析師觀點如下：
汽車地帶的第四季度業績並未顯著改變對該股的支撐性論點，即該公司有望保持營運收入的中個位數增長。預計這種增長將得到相應股份減少的支持，從而有助於每股收益的兩位數增長。
儘管預期有所下調，但對於汽車地帶的基本面仍然基本保持一致。觀察到，該股票的估值對於一家處於防禦型行業、可預期隨着時間推移恢復正常營收增長水平的公司來說是合理的。汽車地帶被認爲是一個強大的複利實體，具有在國內市場進一步奪取市場份額的潛力。
汽車地帶財政第四季度的業績在營業收入和收益方面均未達到預期。觀察到，汽車零件零售行業正經歷需求減少，低收入消費者調整預算，推遲重要汽車維護，減少自助項目的離散性支出。儘管如此，預計通過修訂預期，汽車地帶的業務模式有望在2026財年實現收益增長的復甦。
