UBS maintains a 'Buy' on Lincare Holdings (NASDAQ: LNCR) price target trimmed from $35 to $32.
UBS analyst says, "We believe LNCR’s 4Q11 results demonstrate its ongoing efforts to gain share while leveraging and diversifying its business model. In 4Q, LNCR spent ~$15 mil on a handful of acquisitions, mainly in its core respiratory area as the company consolidated markets using existing operations. LNCR also bought back $50 million in stock during 4Q ($250 mil total for 2011). We expect this strategy to persist, augmenting solid organic growth (~6% in 4Q) which is ~2x market rates due to LNCR’s national scale, differentiated referral network and service offering."
