S&P Capital IQ Reiterates HOLD Recommendation on Amazon.com (NASDAQ: AMZN), Target Price Raised

New York, September 7 (FinanceEnquiry.com) – Analyst Michael Souers at S&P Capital IQ reiterates his HOLD recommendation on the shares of Amazon.com Inc (NASDAQ: AMZN). The 12-month target price has been raised from $230 to $260 that is DCF-based.

In a research note published on September 6, the analyst mentions that EPS estimates of the years 2012 and 2013 have been raised from $0.84 and $2.31 to $1.01 and $2.75, respectively. Furthermore, a front-lit e-reader known as Kindle Paperwhite and a Kindle Fire HD, which is a bigger tablet as compared to the Kindle Fire, having impressive features are basically the two new released products of the company.

In addition to this, making cost leverage regardless of poor margins on the devices, low price points are expected to drive strong unit sales and related services sales. Moreover, shares of AMZN appear fully valued at over 90X EPS estimate of 2013, even though persistent innovation is seen, the analyst adds further.
