TNET

Needham analyst Kyle Peterson has raised the price target of Trinet Group Inc. (TNET) to $135 from $120 and maintained a Buy rating. Peterson expects TNET's CIE to remain muted for the next few quarters due to SMBs' cautious hiring. However, he believes that good execution from the sales force will boost growth. TNET has recently conducted a tender that will retire around 16% of its shares and plans to return about 75% of free cash flow to shareholders, which Peterson believes will result in additional buybacks and a possible dividend boost.
