Duncan Williams downgraded Endo Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ: ENDP) from Strong Buy to Buy. PT $51.

Duncan analyst says, "The quarter was tarnished by higher gross margins and Lidoderm rebates...Less momentum, but still an attractive value play...We maintain our investment thesis: (1) We like the diversification, stability, and
efficiency of Endo’s business model, (2) On the drug pipeline, we have given Endo credit for Opana TRF (and a switch strategy), and the Octreotide implant (now pushed out), (3) We still assume generic entry for Lidoderm in 4Q14, one year prior to patent expiration; (4) We appreciate Endo’s strong operating cash flows and expect M&A associated debt to be mostly repaid by 2015, and (5) execution has been solid across R&D, commercial, and regulatory fronts."
