Darden price target raised to $212 from $200 at Stephens

Stephens raised the firm’s price target on Darden (DRI) to $212 from $200 and keeps an Equal Weight rating on the shares after the company reported fiscal Q4 results that topped consensus expectations on all major line items. FY26 comp guidance came in roughly inline with Street expectations while its EPS guidance was below consensus expectations, notes the analyst, who believes Darden has “decent visibility” into the first half of the fiscal year with tougher second half comparisons and views the stock as “fairly priced.”
