0732 ET - Aritzia's F1Q "beat-and-raise" surpassed the most bullish expectations, says TD Cowen's Brian Morrison. In a report, the analyst says that while same-store sales growth will moderate as the women's fashion retailer laps outsized 2HF26 comparatives, "gross margin leverage and an active NCIB (surplus net cash/strong FCF) should sustain EPS growth >20%." Morrison says the company's current brand heat, a positive 2Q/F27 outlook, upward revisions to consensus for F27/F28 and surplus cash should support a premium valuation and share price momentum. TD Cowen raises the price target to C$200 from C$183. Shares are 27% higher year-to-date at C$148.98. (adriano.marchese@wsj.com)
