FBR Capital initiates coverage on Allscripts-Misys Healthcare (NASDAQ: MDRX) with a Market Perform. PT $22.

FBR analyst says, "Allscripts has combined with Eclipsys to become one of the largest pure-play healthcare information technology (HIT) companies in the industry. Both companies had impressive footprints in the ambulatory and acute hospital spaces, respectively. The coupling gives the new entity considerable opportunity to crosssell its solutions and solidifies Allscripts as a long-term player in a competitive market. We expect Allscripts to continue to market itself as having pervasive reach across the healthcare IT market and an appetite for growth. MDRX’s current market price leaves some room for upside but factors in much of the positives, as well as the risks, associated with the newly combined entity."
