<p>Retailer <strong>Target Corporation</strong> (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TGT#NYSE">TGT</a>) could highlight strong Black Friday sales and the impact tariffs could have on consumers when the company reports fourth-quarter financials before <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/earnings">market open Tuesday.</a></p>
<p>Here are the analyst estimates and commentary, plus key items to watch ahead of the report.</p>
<p><strong>Earnings Estimates:</strong> Analysts expect Target to report fourth-quarter revenue of $30.84 billion. That&#8217;s down from $31.92 billion in last year's fourth quarter, according to data<a href="https://bzresearch.myclickfunnels.com/benzinga-pro-content-webinar-registration/?utm_source=BZprocontent030325&amp;t=be2bearmibe3na1"> from Benzinga Pro.</a></p>
<p>The company has missed analyst estimates for revenue in two straight quarters. It beat estimates in six of the last 10 quarters overall.</p>
<p>Analysts expect Target to report fourth-quarter earnings per share of $2.26, down from $2.98 in last year's fourth quarter. The company missed analyst estimates for earnings per share in one straight quarter while beating estimates in six of the last 10 quarters.</p>
<p>Target's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/11/42085436/target-q3-earnings-supply-chain-chaos-hits-bottomline-slashes-annual-profit-outlook-stock-tanks">guidance for the fourth quarter</a> calls for earnings per share to be in a range of $1.85 to $2.45.</p>
<p><strong>Read Also: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/02/44041104/how-to-earn-500-a-month-from-target-stock-ahead-of-q4-earnings">How To Earn $500 A Month From Target Stock Ahead Of Q4 Earnings</a></strong></p>
<p><strong>What Analysts Are Saying: </strong>Target previously reported holiday sales growth of +2.8%, but maintained its earnings per share range, which could suggest a heavier impact from promotions and discounts, Truist analyst Scot Ciccarelli said in a new investor note.</p>
<p>The analyst has a Hold rating and $134 price target. Target's first quarter also appears to be off to a slow start, the analyst added.</p>
<p>"We also think there is a chance that the company could pursue significant price investments (which we believe is needed) to improve their competitive pricing and drive longer-term share gains," Ciccarelli said.</p>
<p>The analyst said holiday sales growth was in-line with investor expectations and that is the assumption for the fourth quarter.</p>
<p>"Based on 2 years of sluggish sales performance and what appears to be a soft start to 1Q25, we think the company will likely guide comps towards a 0% to +2% range."</p>
<p>Ciccarelli said competitive pressure from Amazon.com and <strong>Walmart </strong>(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WMT#NYSE">WMT</a>) "continue to mount" for Target.</p>
<p>"We remain cautious on TGT given continued share pressures and think that the company may need to accelerate their pricing investments to improve its competitive positioning."</p>
<p>Goldman Sachs analyst Kate McShane maintained a Buy rating and raised the price target on Target stock from $164 to $166<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/43102000/target-the-bull-vs-bear-case-for-2025"> in January.</a></p>
<p>The analyst said Target underperformed other retailers in 2024, but the company's higher mix of discretionary products could help in the future.</p>
<p>"We also think TGT can benefit over time from leveraging its strong fulfillment model and its alternative revenue streams, including Roundel (advertising), Target Circle (membership), and Target Plus (marketplace)," McShane said.</p>
<p>The analyst said Target stock had "limited downside potential" at the time.</p>
<p>Here are other recent<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/TGT/analyst-ratings"> analyst ratings on Target </a>and their price targets:</p>
<ul>
<li>JPMorgan: Maintained Neutral rating, raised price target from $139 to $146</li>
<li>Bernstein: Maintained Market Perform rating, raised price target from $139 to $142</li>
<li>Guggenheim: Maintained Buy rating, raised price target from $145 to $155</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Key Items to Watch</strong>: A recent <a href="https://www.placer.ai/blog/visitation-trends-and-shopping-behaviors-at-walmart-target">report </a>from Placer.ai showed that Target store visits were up 1.0% in November, down 1.3% in December and up 3.6% in January, which could signal improved sales for the first quarter.</p>
<p>The same report recently showed Walmart's foot traffic patterns matching up closely with the company's comparable sales growth for its<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/02/43846469/walmart-q4-earnings-shine-but-soft-fy26-outlook-disappoints-street"> recently reported quarter.</a></p>
<p>While Walmart is a rival, data from Placer.ai shows that Target has customers with higher median household income, has a larger share of repeat monthly visitors and a higher market share of shopping from households with children.</p>
<p>The quarterly results and comparison to recent results from Walmart, who beat analyst estimates for revenue and earnings per share, could show if higher-income shoppers are struggling more or less than lower-income shoppers.</p>
<p>Target's fourth-quarter results will include Black Friday and holiday shopping sales. The company's partnership with <strong>Taylor Swift </strong>on an<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/24/12/42351922/trump-predicted-taylor-swift-sales-would-drop-target-data-shows-over-800k-sold"> exclusive Eras Tour book </a>saw lines outside stores and strong sales over the Black Friday shopping holiday.</p>
<p>In the third quarter, Target highlighted Beauty, Food &amp; Beverage and Essentials as sectors seeing strong year-over-year growth.</p>
<p>Investors and analysts will be looking for commentary on what sectors are seeing strong sales and how the future impact of tariffs on certain goods could impact the retail giant.</p>
<p><strong>Price Action</strong>: Target stock is up 0.3% to $124.56 on Monday versus a 52-week trading range of $120.21 to $181.86. Target stock is down 9.2% year-to-date in 2025 and down 17.2% over the past year.</p>
<p>Compare that to Walmart stock, which trades at $98.11 versus a 52-week trading range of $58.40 to $105.30. Walmart stock is up 9.0% year-to-date in 2025 and up 65.4% over the past year.</p>

<p>On Monday, <strong>AbbVie&nbsp;Inc</strong> (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ABBV#NYSE">ABBV</a>) and <strong>Gubra A/S</strong> announced a license agreement to develop GUB014295, a long-acting amylin analog for obesity. GUB014295 is currently in a <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/03/n44069717/abbvie-and-gubra-announce-license-agreement-to-develop-an-amylin-analog-for-the-treatment-of-obesi" rel="noreferrer noopener">Phase 1 clinical trial</a>.</p>
<p>&#8220;Our partnership with Gubra marks our entry into the obesity field, offering a compelling opportunity based on the potential to address patient needs while also fostering long-term growth for our company,&#8221; said&nbsp;<strong>Robert Michael</strong>, CEO of AbbVie.</p>
<p><strong>Also Read: <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/01/43403416/is-big-pharma-about-to-win-goldman-sachs-weighs-in-on-340b-and-medicaid-shifts" rel="noreferrer noopener">Is Big Pharma About To Win? Goldman Sachs Weighs In On 340B And Medicaid Shifts</a></strong></p>
<p>A potential long-acting amylin analog, GUB014295 is an agonist that specifically activates amylin and calcitonin receptors.</p>
<p>Amylin, a satiety hormone, has been identified as a potential therapeutic target for obesity, given its role in activating signals to the brain that result in appetite suppression and the reduction of food intake while also acting as an inhibitory signal to delay gastric emptying.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Under the terms of the agreement, AbbVie will lead the development and commercialization activities of GUB014295 globally.</p>
<p>Gubra will receive&nbsp;$350 million&nbsp;in total upfront payment and be eligible to receive up to&nbsp;$1.875 billion&nbsp;in development, commercial and sales milestone payments with tiered royalties on global net sales.</p>
<p><strong>William Blair</strong> analyst Matt Phipps writes, &#8220;We believe this transaction highlights a growing interest in amylin agonists (and particularly dual amylin/calcitonin receptor agonists, or DACRAs) as a next wave of obesity assets, particularly for companies looking to break into the field despite being well behind GLP-1 leaders <strong>Eli Lilly And Co</strong> (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LLY#NYSE">LLY</a>) and <strong>Novo Nordisk A/S</strong> (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVO#NYSE">NVO</a>).&#8221;</p>
<p>The analyst highlights a key question is whether AbbVie will develop GUB014295 as a standalone treatment, offering a milder weight loss option for those who cannot tolerate or do not respond to GLP-1/GIP agonists.</p>
<p>Alternatively, the company may combine it with GLP-1/GIP drugs like <strong>Novo Nordisk</strong>'s CagriSema for greater weight loss. Investors are also interested in whether AbbVie plans to expand further in the obesity market through new business deals.</p>
<p><strong>Price Action:</strong> ABBV stock is up 0.84% at $210.78 at the last check Monday.</p>

'Saudi's PIF To Anchor New Gulf-Focused Goldman Sachs Funds; GSAM Funds To Target Private Credit, Public Equity In Region; Wall Street Titans Increasingly Expand Presence In Middle East' - Bloomberg News

<p><strong>NVIDIA Corporation</strong> (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) stock is trading lower on Monday. Reportedly, Chinese buyers are acquiring the company&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com//node/44079411">artificial intelligence (AI) chips</a> despite U.S. export regulations.</p>
<p><strong>What To Know:</strong> According to <a href="https://www.wsj.com/tech/china-nvidia-blackwell-chips-ai-531fed0c">The Wall Street Journal</a>, buyers are bypassing restrictions by routing orders for computing systems with restricted technology through companies registered in neighboring countries such as Malaysia, Vietnam and Taiwan. These entities then resell the technology to buyers in China.</p>
<p>Authorities in these nearby regions have started implementing measures to make such attempts more difficult to carry out.</p>
<p>The U.S. government began implementing controls on chip sales to China in 2022 under now former President <strong>Joe Biden</strong>. Biden signed multiple orders aiming to prevent China from acquiring certain chips. How President <strong>Donald Trump</strong> and his administration will respond remains unknown.</p>
<p>Two Chinese universities have reportedly obtained AI servers containing restricted technology, while a separate merchant is suspected of possessing servers with controlled components. In response, Nvidia has tightened its &#8220;know-your-customer&#8221; policies and increased site inspections to ensure compliance with export rules. </p>
<p>The company also claims that anonymous traders cannot provide the services and support that customers seeking advanced AI technology want.</p>

<h2>Understanding the Relevance of Analyst Ratings</h2>
<p>Within the domain of banking and financial systems, analysts specialize in reporting for specific stocks or defined sectors. Their work involves attending company conference calls and meetings, researching company financial statements, and communicating with insiders to publish "analyst ratings" for stocks. Analysts typically assess and rate each stock once per quarter.</p>
<p>Some analysts will also offer forecasts for metrics like growth estimates, earnings, and revenue to provide further guidance on stocks. Investors who use analyst ratings should note that this specialized advice comes from humans and may be subject to error.</p>
