Wedbush initiates coverage on PerkinElmer (NYSE: PKI) with an Outperform. PT $34.00.

Analyst, Zarak Khurshid, highlighted points include: 1) Excited by recently acquired growth from in vivo imaging & microfluidics; 2) Refreshed analytical tools portfolio still driving robust applied growth; 3) Encouraged by ahead-of-the curve push into software and informatics; 4) Our 2012 and 2013 revenue estimates are 2.5% above the Street’s (due to higher CALP, imaging, and applied growth assumptions), while our 2012 EPS estimates are $0.02 lower in due to less aggressive 4Q12 loading."
