12:35 PM EDT, 04/14/2026 (MT Newswires) -- CFRA, an independent research provider, has provided MT Newswires with the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:

We raise our 12-month target by $5 to $60, based on a FY 28 P/E of 17.4x, a justified discount to KMX's 10-year mean forward P/E of 19.8x. We lower our FY 27 adjusted EPS estimate to $2.70 from $3.05 and introduce FY 28 at $3.45. Following KMX's fiscal Q4 2026 beat, we are raising our price target and reiterating our Buy view. We were encouraged by KMX's earnings release, as the company's top- and bottom-line results came in well above consensus. In our view, KMX has been a poorly managed company for some time and we continue to view it as in the early stages of a turnaround. Moreover, with consumer affordability concerns back in the spotlight due to the uptick in inflation, we think used vehicle demand could benefit - and KMX is one of the only used vehicle pure-plays. We think new CEO Keith Barr has his work cut out to improve margins, but we KMX's volumes and pricing improving in the coming quarters, which should help its bottom line given the significant operating leverage of auto dealerships.
