According to ISI, Northern Trust NTRS price target is raised to $50.
ISI said that reported EPS was $0.53 but includes $0.17 p.s. of restructuring charges partially offset by an $0.03 Visa expense benefit and $0.02 settlement benefit. “With the EPS upside and a better market backdrop, we are becoming more constructive on NTRS vs. our top pick STT in the trust bank space, and see NTRS as a potentially more consistent growth story over 2012-2013 that investors may enable the stock's PE to expand from 14x 2012E (our PT assumes 14-15x 2013E a year from now), with catalysts coming from quarterly earnings.”
Northern Trust closed yesterday at $41.22.
