Goldman Sachs trimmed its price target on Hologic (NASDAQ: HOLX) from $25 to $24 following in-line Q1 results and below-consensus Q2 guidance after the close but is maintaining a Buy rating.

"We continue to have a bullish long-term outlook on the tomosynthesis cycle, synergy upside from the GPRO acquisition, and the potential for material debt service," the analyst said. "On that basis, we continue to think shares are undervalued and attractive relative to our coverage universe. Having said that, we believe near-term share outperformance will depend on improved revenue growth from a combination of tomo adoption and GPRO product cycles."

Goldman raised FY13 EPS from $1.58 to $1.60, FY14 from $1.90 to $1.94 and FY15 from $2.11 to $2.12.
