Today analysts at Jefferies reiterated their Buy rating on Mednax and raised their price target to $88 from $81.

Mednax (MD) is one of Jefferies top picks given their belief that the company's push to aggressively expand its anesthesiology business will drive robust growth over the next several years that is not yet adequately reflected in the stock's valuation.

“MD's push to grow anesthesiology to the size of its pediatric business suggests a projected 5-year revenue CAGR of ~17%. Given that anesthesiology is a large segment (with 48,000+ physicians) comprised mostly of good-sized practice groups (basedon revenues), we believe MD's goal is attainable.” said analyst Brian Tanquilut.
