Sun Communities price target lowered to $138 from $145 at BMO Capital

BMO Capital lowered the firm’s price target on Sun Communities (SUI) to $138 from $145 and keeps an Outperform rating on the shares. Given the unusual report timing and high seasonality, Sun Communities’ Q3 results disappointed across the board, with a core FFO per share miss and a guidance downgrade, but the management announced necessary changes, including the retirements of CEO Gary Shiffman and an unnamed Board member, the analyst tells investors in a research note. BMO adds it is hopeful for more significant changes that may include a spinoff or sale of Park Holidays or Safe Harbor.
