Consensus estimates assume minimal share gains, which suggests they are "very achievable, if not conservative," Olson tells investors in a research note. Priceline is well positioned to capture an increasing share of travel bookings, the analyst contends. He reiterates an Overweight rating on the shares with a 12-month price target of $1,700.
