Auriga reiterates a 'Buy' on Impax Laboratories (NASDAQ: IPXL) price target of $30.00.

Analyst, Louise Chen, said, "We are reiterating our rating and price target for IPXL shares post our meeting with Carole Ben-Maimon, President of Global Pharmaceuticals and Mark Donohue, IR on 5/9/12. Our meeting with management underscores our investment thesis for IPXL shares which is that 2013 earnings potential is underappreciated. In 2013, we could look forward to: 1) Additional new, accretive acquisition(s) to be in place (prefer brand with alternate dosage form, injectable, patches, nasals and implants); 2) Launch of IPX066 for Parkinson's; 3) Margin expansion and a lower tax rate driven by Taiwan manufacturing (several hundred bps); 4) New generic launches; 5) Positive Phase IIb data for IPX159, for Restless Leg Syndrome; 6) OUS expansion of generics business; 7) Settlement with Shire for generic Adderall XR that could extend agreement beyond 9/2014; and 8) Launch of generic Opana ER 1/1/13 with downside protection from Endo (Nasdaq: ENDP)."
