DA Davidson analyst Michael Baker lowered the firm’s price target on Destination XL (DXLG) to $3 from $3.50 and keeps a Buy rating on the shares. The firm cites the Fund 1 Investments having made a takeover bid for the company at $3 per share, which equates to an enterprise value of $128M. Given Fund 1’s bid for Nordstrom (JWN), the Destination XL deal should be favorable from a shareholder perspective given its lower EBITDA margins compared to Nordstrom, the analyst tells investors in a research note.
