Recommendation

Peet’s Coffee & Tea is a growing company. The company’s high quality standard and its variety are maintained by its vertically integrated business model. However, the highly competitive nature of specialty coffee category and the vulnerability of coffee prices to weather and damage by pestconcern us.

Currently, we prefer to rate the stock as Neutral. Further, Supervalu holds the Zacks #2 Rank, which translates into a short-term Buy rating.
