RBC Capital lowered the firm's price target on Polaris to $97 from $103 and keeps a Sector Perform rating on the shares.

Citi continues to see risk to the remainder of the year, but sees limited downside to shares from here, with its base case implying modest upside over the next twelve months. It believes elevated promotions continue to weigh on the leisure industry.
