Goldman Sachs reiterated their Conviction Buy-List rating on Edwards Lifesciences (NYSE: EW) but trimmed their price target from $90 to $88.

At this point shares of EW are trading trading slightly above the implied value should PARTNER A (P-A) not gain approval ($64). However, the firm continues to see P-A gaining approval, with timing being the issue. Longer-term they said the new product mix should drive EPS growth 2-3X faster than revenue.

Goldman lowered estimates and its price target to reflect a delay in US P-A approval.
