JB Hi-Fi (ASX:JBH) faces risks from growing Amazon competition and limited AI-driven tailwinds for the replacement cycle, even as it is a "high-quality omnichannel retailer with industry-best cost base efficiency," RBC Capital Markets analyst Michael Toner said, according to The Australian Financial Review.
RBC noted the firm's strong in-store presence, lean operating margins, and exposure to structural growth categories.
The investment firm started coverage on JB Hi‑Fi, assigning a Sector Perform rating and a price target of AU$101 per share.
