Oppenheimer maintains an 'Outperform' on Endologix (NASDAQ: ELGX) price target of $17.00.

Analyst, Steven Lichtman, said, "We recently hosted meetings with ELGX management and came away confident that this growth story remains very much in tact: Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) market volumes/pricing remain solid, ELGX's sales force is gaining in strength and the company's competition trails in the development of pipeline products to rival Nellix or Ventana. Moreover, we believe the Street is still underestimating Nellix’s potential in mainstream AAA. All told, we forecast >25% sales growth over the next five years. We remain buyers ahead of several 2H pipeline catalysts including approvals of Nellix (EU), PEVAR (US), Intuitrak (Japan) and Ventana (EU)."
