01:37 PM EDT, 07/07/2025 (MT Newswires) -- National Bank of Canada over the weekend maintained its outperform rating on the shares of Groupe Dynamite (GRGDF) while raising its price target to $32 from $25.

The bank said it is reviewing its price target for the clothing retailer following a "strong" 35% stock price appreciation since June 17.

The bank compared key financial metrics of GRGD vs. industry peers, specifically Aritzia (ATZ.TO) in the note and stated that it believes GRGD has strong metrics which could support a favorable re-rating, provided they continue to execute well.

"We believe that GRGD could ultimately trade at a multiple closer to Aritzia, which trades at 14.3x NTM EV/EBITDA (IFRS-adjusted)," said the bank, noting that GRGD trades at 9.2 times which would imply a share price upside of near 60%.

Price: 27.20, Change: +0.71, Percent Change: +2.68

In general the bond market is volatile, and fixed income securities carry interest rate risk. (As interest rates rise, bond prices usually fall, and vice versa. This effect is usually more pronounced for longer-term securities.) Fixed income securities also carry inflation risk and credit and default risks for both issuers and counterparties. Unlike individual bonds, most bond funds do not have a maturity date, so avoiding losses caused by price volatility by holding them until maturity is not possible.

Lower-quality debt securities generally offer higher yields, but also involve greater risk of default or price changes due to potential changes in the credit quality of the issuer. Any fixed income security sold or redeemed prior to maturity may be subject to loss.
