Jefferies analyst Raj Denhoy maintained a Buy rating and $75 price target on Medtronic, Inc. (NYSE: MDT) saying they still believe the Covidien plc (NYSE: COV) deal gets done.
"The news on ABBV’s reconsideration of the Shire deal caused spreads in MDT/COV to widen significantly," Denhoy notes. "Despite increased skepticism, the strategic underpinnings of the deal are so compelling that we can’t see how Medtronic walks."
