TD Cowen lowered the firm’s price target on Estee Lauder (EL) to $70 from $95 and keeps a Hold rating on the shares. The firm said the company shouldn’t focus on growth for growth’s sake but instead focus on quality growth; meaning full price selling to a stable long-term customer base. The new CEO may need to re-base revenues lower before growing especially with respect to rethinking the Travel Retail segment.
