JP Morgan analyst Steven Alexopoulos published a report on KeyCorp KEY that maintained its Overweight rating and raised price target from $10 to $10.50.
JP Morgan reported that, “Despite a new CEO repositioning the company in a more profitable direction long
term, shares still trade at a sizable discount to peers. Even though there is risk to any
turnaround story, with KEY shares trading at a 32% discount to peers on a P/TBV
basis, we believe the bar is sufficiently low that even a modest improvement in
operating performance could drive a much narrower discount valuation. In line with
our increase in estimates, we are increasing our December 2013 price target from $10
to $10.50 which assumes the shares trade at 1.01x YE13 TBV of $10.44, or a 28%
discount to peers.”
Shares of KeyCorp closed at $10.11 on Friday.
