D.A. Davidson analyst Michael Baker maintains $Costco (COST.US)$ with a hold rating.
According to TipRanks data, the analyst has a success rate of 61.2% and a total average return of 6.6% over the past year.
Furthermore, according to the comprehensive report, the opinions of $Costco (COST.US)$'s main analysts recently are as follows:
Costco reported another robust quarter, underpinned by solid underlying trends, advancements in e-commerce with enhanced profitability, and strong membership growth. The momentum for Costco is anticipated to persist, with the current valuation of the stock embodying these prospects.
Costco has been reported to have robust underlying quarterly earnings, with its gross margins and comparable store sales slightly surpassing forecasts, coupled with a steady 6% increase in global customer traffic. Despite projecting above-average earnings per share growth for the fiscal year, a more cautious view is held regarding the company's earnings growth in the forthcoming years. This is due to the company's history of reinvesting income from member fees. Nonetheless, optimism is maintained regarding the company's e-commerce expansion and the stock's valuation continues to be seen as appealing.
After Costco's announcement of favorable fiscal Q4 outcomes with EBIT slightly surpassing the consensus, an analyst underscored the company's robust comp growth of 6.9% and a year-over-year core-on-core gross margin expansion of 9 basis points, contributing to approximately 13% EPS growth. This performance underscores the resilience of the company's business model. It is anticipated that the recently implemented membership fee hike will be predominantly reinvested, which should further support sales, comp, and traffic increases in the forthcoming 12-18 months. Consequently, earnings projections for FY25-FY26 have been modestly revised upwards post-report.

戴维森信托分析师Michael Baker维持$好市多 (COST.US)$持有评级。
根据TipRanks数据显示，该分析师近一年总胜率为61.2%，总平均回报率为6.6%。
此外，综合报道，$好市多 (COST.US)$近期主要分析师观点如下：
Costco报告了又一个强劲的季度，这得益于稳健的潜在趋势、电子商务的进步和盈利能力的增强以及强劲的会员增长。预计好市多的势头将持续下去，该股目前的估值体现了这些前景。
据报道，好市多的基础季度收益强劲，其毛利率和可比门店销售额略高于预期，全球客户流量稳步增长6％。尽管预计本财年的每股收益增长将高于平均水平，但对公司未来几年的收益增长持更为谨慎的看法。这是由于该公司有将会员费收入再投资的历史。尽管如此，人们对该公司的电子商务扩张仍然持乐观态度，该股的估值仍然被认为具有吸引力。
好市多宣布第四财季业绩良好，息税前利润略高于市场预期，此后，一位分析师强调了该公司6.9％的强劲竞争增长，核心毛利率同比增长了9个基点，每股收益增长了约13％。这种表现凸显了公司商业模式的弹性。预计最近实施的会员费上调将主要用于再投资，这将进一步支持未来12-18个月的销售、补偿和流量增长。因此，在发布报告后，FY25-FY26 的收益预测已适度上调。
