The Gucci license and others will be going to L'Oreal, TD points out. It believes Coty "needs to build and emphasize proprietary formulations, brand-building, and verticalized capabilities that consumers cannot get anywhere else." TD keeps a Hold rating on Coty with a $4 price target. The stock in morning trading is down 2% to $4.24.
