BTIG lowered the firm’s price target on Zoetis (ZTS) to $160 from $200 and keeps a Buy rating on the shares. The company’s Q3 results missed on the top line and the management cut its guidance, the analyst tells investors in a research note. Zoetis’s U.S. bread-and-butter companion – animal health segment – came in flat, and below the firm’s 6% expected growth rate, as the company cited a step-up in competitive activity on top of the 2% decline in vet clinic visits, BTIG added.
