Jefferies Downgrades Compass Diversified (CODI) to Hold

Jefferies analyst Matthew Hurwit downgraded Compass Diversified (NYSE: CODI) from Buy to Hold with a price target of $7.30 (from $28.00).

The analyst comments: "We downgrade CODI to Hold given material uncertainty from the ongoing investigation disclosed at the Lugano subsidiary. Lugano's former CEO engaged in material unauthorized third-party funding arrangements and questionable inventory valuations. Our CODI price target of $7.30 is based on a SOTP and conservatively assigns zero value to Lugano, as recommended by management, given material overstatement of inventory and a lengthy recovery process."
