Roth Capital analyst Bill Kirk lowered the firm’s price target on Sprouts Farmers Market (SFM) to $91 from $155 and keeps a Neutral rating on the shares. Sprouts’ Q3 was a comp store sales miss and earnings beat, while its Q4 guidance calls for continued y/y comp deceleration and earnings below consensus expectations, the analyst tells investors in a research note. Deceleration was quicker than expected, though the two-year trends have stabilized, the firm added.
