October 28, 2009 8:16 AM EDT

Soleil Securities reiterates a 'Buy' on Cephalon (Nasdaq: CEPH), price target $92.

Soleil analyst says, "Yesterday CEPH reported above consensus Q3'2009 financial results (EPS of $1.62 vs. consensus of $1.41), and better than expected first-time 2010 guidance. Management provided diluted EPS guidance of $6.20 - $6.40, above our belief of a whisper number of $6.00 and official consensus of $6.22. We would also remind investors of management's long history of outperformance relative to official guidance...Though R&D will be up significantly year/year (up 15 - 20%) to $470-$490mm, it was still lower than the $500mm+ projection that we had heard rumored on the Street...Our model is under review as we update for newly issued guidance across the P&L, prescription trends, and current run rates."
