Canaccord Genuity maintains a 'Buy' on Edwards Lifesciences (NYSE: EW) price target of $90.00.

Analyst, Jason R. Mills, said, "Q4 results and CMS’ proposed TAVI NCD will test investors’ conviction. EW’s business (and stock) will go as TAVI goes, given its impact on all aspects of the business – i.e. total revenue, GM and operating leverage. So, to buy this stock today on weakness, we believe investors must get comfortable with four primary TAVI-related issues: 1) FDA approval for Cohort A; 2) read-through from the proposed NCD; 3) potential for US SAVR turn around; and 4) OUS TAVI growth profile."
