JPMorgan analyst Christopher Horvers reiterated the Overweight rating on Ulta Beauty, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ULTA#NASDAQ">ULTA</a>), <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/ULTA/analyst-ratings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">raising the price forecast from $475 to $477.</a>
Ulta will report first-quarter earnings on reports Thursday, May 29, after the market close.
Horvers notes that during Ulta&#8217;s fourth-quarter earnings update, the company mentioned comparable sales trends were nearly flat. They&#8217;re starting to improve thanks to the momentum of its semi-annual event and a more stable consumer and beauty market.

Broadly, the analyst sees beauty category growth normalizing to its historical 3%-4% range, positioning Ulta to gain share thanks to its unique mix of mass and prestige offerings and strong industry position. This, Horvers writes, should lead to better margin conversion, earnings growth, and potential multiple expansion.
The analyst also points out that, during the firm&#8217;s April 3 RRU conference, Ulta Beauty CEO Kecia Steelman maintained a positive outlook. She highlighted consistent consumer behavior since the Q4 report and strong performance during promotional periods, even as overall engagement remained soft in quieter times.
Horvers observes that since Ulta's last report, quarter-to-date trends have shown modest improvement—about 50 basis points—according to Nielsen and Circana data, with momentum building sequentially from January through March.
Additional insights from Coty Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COTY#NYSE">COTY</a>) and Estee Lauder Companies (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EL#NYSE">EL</a>) suggest that April performed better than March. Based on this, the analyst has raised its forecast to 0.7%.
Although Ulta did not offer formal second-quarter guidance, Horvers notes that management expects comparable sales to remain roughly in line, with the second and third quarters benefiting from easier year-over-year comparisons.
While consumer behavior appears stable or slightly better than a year ago, fading market share pressures and stronger execution should support improvement.
Price Action: Ulta Beauty shares are trading lower by 1.38% to $405.04 at last check Friday.

<h2>The Basics of Analyst Ratings</h2>
Ratings come from analysts, or specialists within banking and financial systems that report for specific stocks or defined sectors (typically once per quarter for each stock). Analysts usually derive their information from company conference calls and meetings, financial statements, and conversations with important insiders to reach their decisions.
Some analysts also offer predictions for helpful metrics such as earnings, revenue, and growth estimates to provide further guidance as to what to do with certain tickers. It is important to keep in mind that while stock and sector analysts are specialists, they are also human and can only forecast their beliefs to traders.

Wall Street Mixed Ahead Of Fed Meeting, Alphabet Sinks: What's Driving Markets Wednesday?

Coty shares are trading lower after the company reported worse-than-expected Q3 financial results and cut its FY25 adjusted EPS guidance.

Coty Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COTY#NYSE">COTY</a>) shares are <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/premarket">trading lower in premarket</a> on Wednesday after the third-quarter FY25 earnings.
The company reported a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/05/b45236590/coty-reports-q3-results-and-shares-multi-pronged-plan-of-attack-to-fuel-momentum-in-fy26-and-beyon">third-quarter sales decline </a>of 6.3% year-on-year to $1.30 billion, missing the analyst consensus estimate of $1.31 billion.
LFL revenue decreased&nbsp;3%. Prestige net revenues declined 4%&nbsp;and&nbsp;that of&nbsp;Consumer Beauty dropped 9%.
Revenue in the Americas fell 10% Y/Y, and EMEA decreased 3%. Gross margin contracted 70 basis points Y/Y to 64.1%, and the gross profit decreased 7.3% to $832.4 million.
Adjusted&nbsp;operating margin was 11.4%, and the adjusted operating income increased 3% to $147.9 million. Adjusted EBITDA of $204.2 million climbed 2% Y/Y, resulting in an adjusted EBITDA margin of 15.7%.

Adjusted EPS was $0.01, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/earnings">missing the consensus</a> estimate of $0.06.
Operating cash flow for the quarter totaled $(122.5) million, with a free cash flow of $(168.4) million. The company held $243.5 million in cash and equivalents as of March-end.
Total debt of $3.86 billion on March 31, 2025 increased from $3.46 billion on Dec. 31, 2024.
"While we are not satisfied with our net revenue performance, Coty&#8217;s strong fundamentals, coupled with our multi-pronged attack-plan for accelerating innovation, distribution and efficiencies, gives us confidence for the years ahead,&#8221;&nbsp;said CEO Sue Nabi.
&#8220;We are much more strongly positioned to navigate the current complex dynamics including tariffs and broader macroeconomic uncertainty, supported by the strategic, operational and financial fundamentals which we&#8217;ve significantly strengthened over the last four years, even in the context of the highly constrained P&amp;L,&#8221; Nabi added.
Outlook: Coty lowered FY25 adjusted EPS guidance from $0.50 &#8211; $0.52 to $0.49 &#8211; $0.50 with an estimate of $0.42. LFL sales are expected to decline 2%.

Wall Street edged lower by midday Tuesday as uncertainty surrounding trade policies lingered, with investors adopting a cautious approach ahead of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/federal-reserve">Wednesday&#8217;s Federal Reserve meeting.</a>
In a meeting with Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney, President Donald Trump suggested the U.S. may soon begin renegotiating the USMCA. He noted that China is eager to negotiate due to its struggling economy, driven by a lack of U.S. trade, but emphasized the talks would take place &#8220;at the right time.&#8221;
Trump kept his trade stance unclear, suggesting that while some agreements may be signed, there is no obligation to finalize any, and dismissed repeated questions about the number of deals in progress.
The S&amp;P 500 dipped 30 points, or 0.6%, to 5,610, on track for its second consecutive negative session after nine straight gains. The Nasdaq 100 dropped 0.8%, while the Russell 2000 slipped 1%.
Ten of the 11 S&amp;P 500 sectors were in the red, with utilities as the only sector in the green. The U.S. dollar fell, extending its losses for a third straight session.
Commodities saw a broad rally, with oil prices surging 3.6%, pushing WTI above $59, following <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/05/45224883/oil-soars-above-59-as-middle-east-airstrikes-jolt-markets">Israeli airstrikes in Yemen</a>. Gold also rallied, climbing 2.4% to above $3,400 per ounce amid heightened geopolitical tensions.
Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) reversed Monday's gains, slipping 0.4% to $94,375.

<h2>Understanding the Relevance of Analyst Ratings</h2>
Within the domain of banking and financial systems, analysts specialize in reporting for specific stocks or defined sectors. Their work involves attending company conference calls and meetings, researching company financial statements, and communicating with insiders to publish "analyst ratings" for stocks. Analysts typically assess and rate each stock once per quarter.
Beyond their standard evaluations, some analysts contribute predictions for metrics like growth estimates, earnings, and revenue, furnishing investors with additional guidance. Users of analyst ratings should be mindful that this specialized advice is shaped by human perspectives and may be subject to variability.
