An analyst from the firm noted: "We lower our 2013-15 EPS estimates to $2.72/$3.01/$3.24 ($2.82/$3.10/$3.35) to reflect continued softness in US sales trends, offset in part by the weaker USD. This suggests an EPS decline in 2013 and sales declines for 3 of 4 years. We lower our P/E and DCF-based 12-month price target by $1 to $43 to reflect our lower estimates. We retain our Sell rating."

Hasbro shares were down 90 cents, or 1.90%, during Monday morning trading. The stock is up 29% YTD.
