PRICING STRATEGY, NEW CUSTOMERS TO HELP OFFSET TARIFF GLOOM

** J.P.Morgan ("overweight", raises PT by $2 to $140) sees boost from pricing strategy bringing new higher income shoppers, who can drive sales across price points

** Telsey Advisory Group ("outperform", PT: $130) says company signaling tariff pressure to be greater than expected a quarter ago is not surprising; sees new consumer share gains, pricing strategy, new stores and Uber Eats partnership generating long-term growth

** Jefferies ("hold", cuts PT by $20 to $110) says tariff mitigation strategy key to second half of year as company becomes more focused following Family Dollar sale
