DA Davidson analyst Linda Bolton Weiser lowered her price target on Nu Skin to $88 after meeting with its CFO Mark Lawrence in a Holiday Beauty Bus Tour. The analyst states that while he was upbeat about the company's 3-pillar growth strategy around "Platforms, Products, and Programs", her lower price target is driven by the assumption of lower 2019 gross margins as the company's "lower margin manufacturing operations are likely to grow faster than the overall business". Weiser also lowers her FY19 EPS view by 15c to $4.00 but maintains a Buy rating on Nu Skin shares longer term on expectations that the company will gradually phase out its "limited time offers", thereby reducing the lumpiness of its sales growth rate.
