Reason
Jefferies analyst Tycho Peterson raised the firm's price target on Mesa Labs to $115 from $110 and keeps a Buy rating on the shares following a Q2 report that were "solid" and "a relatively less noisy showing than 1Q results." The firm sees scope for shares to re-rate higher as stability comes back and credibility builds, the analyst tells investors.

Reason
Wells Fargo upgraded Mesa Labs to Equal Weight from Underweight with a price target of $67, down from $100. The firm believes the recent sharp stock selloff appears overdone in the context of relatively stable fundamentals and clear balance sheet flexibility for Mesa Labs to redeem its outstanding converts due next week. Wells sees a more balanced risk/reward here at about 8-times EBITDA.

Underweight
Reason
Wells Fargo analyst Brandon Couillard lowered the firm's price target on Mesa Labs to $100 from $120 and keeps an Underweight rating on the shares. The firm notes Q4 revenues were in line, but adjusted EBITDA missed by about $2M, driven by higher-than-expected bonus accrual. Shares traded sharply lower, which Wells attributes to weak Q4 margins.
