Oppenheimer maintains an 'Outperform' on HMS Holdings (NASDAQ: HMSY) price target of $38.00.

Analyst, Bret Jones, said, "Shares of HMSY traded up ~9% after the company announced in-line 2Q12 results. We believe the market was reassured by in-line results, the company's reiteration of guidance, and commentary that the company could likely achieve guidance without additional new wins. With the company in implementation mode, we believe 2H12 is poised for a potential beat depending on the continued success of HDI/Medicare RAC. Additionally, HMS announced 6 more Medicaid RAC state wins in AK, ID, MT, UT, MN and VA, and we continue to believe the market is underestimating the Medicaid RAC opportunity. Last, management hinted at Healthcare Exchange revenue in 2013, which we see as upside."

FY12 EPS estimate raised by $0.01 to $0.63 and FY13 lowered by $0.01 to $0.91.
