Canaccord Genuity maintains a 'Buy' on Valeant Pharmaceuticals (NYSE: VRX), PT under review.
Canaccord analyst says, "Valeant’s conference call on its hostile bid for Cephalon (Nasdaq: CEPH) did little to change our positive view of potential synergies from this transaction. However, we do believe that management may be underestimating cost savings that could be realized if the deal is consummated. At the same time, we have become marginally more comfortable with the potential debt levels for Valeant should the transaction close, as well as the company’s strategy to pay this down. While not included in our analysis, we also believe that Valeant could generate revenue synergies with Cephalon’s products."
