RBC Capital raised its price target on Kellogg (NYSE: K) to $79.00 (from $78.00) while maintaining a Sector Perform rating following the company's 3Q earnings report. Analyst David Palmer estimates that favorable shipment timing and delayed marketing spend in North America this quarter contributed ~4pp of the company’s 9% EPS upside both YOY and versus flat forecasts but expects this to largely reverse in 4Q.
