Wedbush upgraded Alere (NYSE: ALR) from Neutral to Outperform with a price target of $23.00.
Analyst, Zarak Khurshid, said, "ALR released an 8-k yesterday morning outlining details for the expected recall of product manufactured during 2011 and 1Q12. About 58% of the 803,000 tests recalled relate to cardiac panel tests (worth ~$20 MM in 1Q12)...Significant product return unlikely, given customer inventory turnover and recall language...More favorable product standard is helping ALR effectively supply the market and manage customer expectations...Shares of ALR are off 18% - Risk-reward interesting again."
