Benchmark reiterates a 'Buy' on OSI Systems (NASDAQ: OSIS) price target of $72.00.

Analyst, Josephine Millward, said, "We are lowering our Q4 GAAP EPS estimate from $0.86 to $0.74 to reflect faster-than-expected start-up costs (approximately $0.12) related to ramping in Mexico. We are also lowering our FY13 GAAP EPS estimate from $2.90 to $2.63; however, we maintain our Q4 pro forma EPS of $0.86 and our FY13 pro forma EPS of $2.90."

"At $63.16, the stock is up more than 30% YTD and is trading at 10.7x our FY13 EV/EBITDA. We continue to like OSIS based on its strong visibility for double-digit earnings growth and upside from multiple opportunities in security and healthcare."
