Barclays maintains an 'Overweight' on Allscripts-Misys Healthcare (NASDAQ: MDRX), PT raised from $23 to $25.

Barclays analyst says, "With the release, we are expecting 4Q EPS of $0.18, in line with consensus expectations of $0.18. For the quarter, we estimate revenues of $335 million, in the range of guidance suggested by Allscripts in November. Given the recurring nature of the bulk of Allscripts' revenue base (around 70% recurring), we'd view Allscripts as having a relatively strong ability to hit its target revenue range, as reflected by the small window given by the company on guided revenue and adjusted EBIT." (Barclays raises FY12 EPS estimate from $0.86 to $0.88)

"Into the release, we are raising our 2011 EPS estimates and price target on MDRX to $25, a reflection in our view of improved visibility on the implementation of Allscripts' meaningful use certified products, and our belief of an on-track integration which could provide further upside through 2012 and beyond."
