BMO Capital analyst Amit Sharma is keeping his Outperform rating and $34 price target on Keurig Dr Pepper (KDP), citing its expected "sector leading" mid-teen earnings growth through 2021 along with his "greater confidence" in post-synergies earnings growth potential in high single digits. The analyst notes that investors are focusing on the company's coffee business while overlooking the "ingrained structural advantages" of its much-larger RTD beverage business, with consensus estimates modeling a "smaller" improvement than the expected North America sales trends at Coca-Cola (KO) and PepsiCo (PEP).
