The Globe and Mail reports in its Thursday, Sept. 4, edition that RBC Dominion Securities analyst Irene Nattel has reaffirmed her "outperform" recommendation for Alimentation Couche-Tard. The Globe's David Leeder writes in the Eye On Equities column that Ms. Nattel gave her share target a $3 trim to $91. Analysts on average target the shares at $83.22. Ms. Nattel believes Couche-Tard has a compelling valuation. She remains positive on the company due to its strong capital allocation and ability to navigate challenges. Ms. Nattel says in a note: "The fade in Couche-Tard share price performance since the initial bump after the company walked way from 7&I reinforces our view that the key to Couche-Tard generating higher investor conviction/multiple rerating remain improvements in underlying performance. Q1/F26 results a step (albeit small) in the right direction, with KPI's showing sequential improvements, notably U.S. inside store sales. ... Q1 results reflect deepening traction on initiatives to drive inside sales. ... Couche-Tard typically performs well across the cycle; in our view, extended SSS pressures reflect protracted, unexpected headwinds for low-end consumer."
