Canaccord Genuity maintains a 'Hold' on Greatbatch, Inc. (NYSE: GB) price target of $25.00 (from $27.00).
Analyst, Jason R. Mills, said, "GB saw a modest improvement in CRM and continued strength in Vascular and ElectroChem, offset by weakness in Orthopedics, which management said would not hit its 2012 targets due to FX headwinds and operational issues. Operating margin leverage has stagnated around 12% for the past three years albeit improved to 11.5% (pro forma) in Q2 from 9.8% in Q1. While we continue to have a favorable view of the company’s long-term medical device product strategy, we do not see OM expansion potential near term." (Lowers FY13 EPS estimate from $2.01 to $1.97)
