Mizuho Securities Downgrades Jazz Pharmaceuticals (JAZZ) to Neutral

November 10, 2015 6:31 AM

Mizuho Securities downgraded Jazz Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ: JAZZ) from Outperform to Neutral with a price target of $140.00 (from $164.00) on valuation.

Analyst Irina Koffler commented, "We are downgrading Jazz to NEUTRAL from BUY and lowering our PT from $164 to $140 on revised valuation methodology. Additionally, the company missed on the top and bottom line in 3Q:15, and lowered 2015 guidance. We model below consensus 2016 EPS and can no longer support a Buy rating in spite of our cautiously optimistic outlook on a 2016 Xyrem generic settlement."
