MOST NOTEWORTHY: Drugstore.com, Sycamore and Aflac were today’s noteworthy initiations:

• Kaufman Bros. believes Drugstore.com (NASDAQ: DSCM) is well-positioned for long-term growth and significant margin expansion, led by share gains in the OTC and prestige beauty verticals. The firm started shares with a Buy rating and $3.25 target.
• Merriman initiated Sycamore (NASDAQ: SCMR) with a Neutral rating and prefers to be on the sidelines given the company’s concentrated customer base and lack of clarity on strategic priorities and ongoing business operations.
• SunTrust Robinson expects the Aflac’s (NYSE: AFL) cancer insurance policies in Japan to benefit from concerns about the national health system. Shares were assumed with a Buy rating and $79 target.
