Goldman Sachs upgraded Mylan (NASDAQ: MYL) from Neutral to Buy with a price target of $27 (up from $23).

The firm said they have increased confidence in the company's earnings visibility, and they see Street estimates revised higher which will drive the stock. Goldman notes that investors have skeptical of the company's 2013 EPS target, given concerns about exposure to EU and Asia-Pacific generics which have see soft pricing.

While the firm lowered estimates further to account for these headwinds, they see the strategy to re-value its EpiPen brand franchise to more than offset and provide significant growth.

The firm sees FY11 EPS of $2.01, FY12 of $2.53 and FY13 of $2.70.
