Barclays maintains an 'Equalweight' on Coventry Health Care (NYSE: CVH) price target lowered from $38 to $35.
Analyst, Joshua R. Raskin, said, "CVH reported in-line quarterly results despite significant pressure from the new Kentucky Medicaid contract. However, core guidance is being significantly reduced with an offset from a one-time benefit from the release of RADV reserves. While Coventry is confirming its GAAP 2012 guidance for EPS, the actual range is down more than 18% excluding the one-time benefit."
Raskin slashes 2012 EPS estimate from $3.20 to $2.60 and FY13 from $3.40 to $3.10
