The Valspar Corporation (NYSE: VAL), and raised the price target from $69.00 to $73.00.In the report, Citigroup noted, “4Q13 EPS exceeded expectations, but operationally the quarter was in-line with our below consensus EBIT estimate ($137mm vs. Citi at $136mm).

Remain Neutral.”Valspar closed on Wednesday at $71.45.
