The Globe and Mail reports in its Thursday, Oct. 24, edition that Desjardins Securities analyst Gary Ho has reiterated his "buy" recommendation for goeasy. The Globe's David Leeder writes in the Eye On Equities column that Mr. Ho gave his share target a $5 trim to $210. Analysts on average target the shares at $224.14. Mr. Ho says in a note: "goeasy reports on Nov. 7 after market. We lowered our estimates, driven by reduced revenue yield (preliminary results suggest yield is below previous guidance of 34 to 35 per cent) and increased provisions given the uncertain macro outlook. However, we anticipate stable/slightly improved NCO and delinquencies as prior credit enhancements take effect. Management may also provide an update on the CEO transition." The Globe reported on April 23 and May 9 that Mr. Ho continued to rate goeasy "buy." The shares were then worth $175.09 and $190.60. The Globe reported on Aug. 13 and Oct. 23 that BMO Nesbitt Burns analyst Etienne Ricard rated goeasy "outperform" and "market perform." The shares were then going for $185.46 and $165.39.
