Jefferies boosted its price target on Buy-rated SXC Health Solutions (NASDAQ: SXCI) from $80 to $110 after the deal to acquire Catalyst Health Solutions, saying the acquisition will help it play more aggressive offense.

The firm comments, "We view SXC's pending acquisition of CHSI as a game-changing move that will enable the company to more aggressively play offense to take advantage of emerging market share gain/new contracting opportunities. Given our very robust growth expectations for SXC and our belief that the company will continue to solidify its position as a top player in the PBM space, we remain bullish on the name and reiterate our Buy/PT to $110."
