Canaccord Genuity Q4/11 Orthopedic Preview: Large Joints, Spine, Sports Medicine and Biologics
Analyst, William J. Plovanic, names four companies that are likely to move in the next six months.
ArthroCare (Nasdaq: ARTC)(BUY): looking for DOJ progress and stable financials
MAKO Surgical (Nasdaq: MAKO)(HOLD): preannounces in-line system sales and strong US knee procedure volumes
NuVasive (Nasdaq: NUVA)(BUY): preannounces solid Q4/11; IP dispute weighs the stock down
Orthofix (Nasdaq: OFIX)(BUY): BGS appears stable and ready for 2012 rebound
Mr. Plovanic said, “We continue to view the long-term opportunities positively and firmly believe that in the “new age” of orthopedics there will still be winners and losers, and thus an opportunity for capital gains. Furthermore, while we believe the glory days of the orthopedics industry are unlikely to return, business should improve from current levels when the economy improves, and we note that underlying demographics are favorable. For now, we expect medtech investors to play the waiting game for many of these stocks until consistent growth and subsequent leverage opportunity returns.”
