Jefferies Sees Compelling Entry Point in C.H. Robinson (CHRW) Shares

On May 20, Jefferies upgraded C.H. Robinson Worldwide, Inc. (NASDAQ:CHRW) to Buy from Hold. It also lifted the price target to $200 from $195. Analyst Stephanie Moore said a visit to the company’s headquarters “materially reinforced” its conviction in C.H. Robinson’s technology and productivity transformation. Jefferies also said the regulatory environment following the Montgomery versus Caribe Transport Supreme Court ruling structurally favors larger, scaled brokers. The analyst added that the company’s balance sheet positions it as a “natural consolidator,” according to a research note. The firm believes current share levels offer a “compelling entry point” for investors.

On May 15, JPMorgan added CHRW to its Analyst Focus List while maintaining an Overweight rating on the shares. The firm said the Supreme Court’s Montgomery versus Caribe Transport ruling exposes brokers to the same negligent hiring liability faced by carriers. JPMorgan believes smaller truckload carriers and brokers could gradually leave the market as the expanded liability leads to higher compliance and insurance costs. The firm also said the market may be underestimating Robinson’s scale advantages in a post-Montgomery environment.

C.H. Robinson Worldwide, Inc. (NASDAQ:CHRW) is a global logistics provider. The company operates through its North American Surface Transportation (NAST), Global Forwarding, and All Other and Corporate segments.
