Buy Medtronic (MDT) Weakness, Says Deutsche Bank

March 1, 2016 3:02 PM

Deutsche Bank earlier reiterated a Buy rating on Medtronic, Inc. (NYSE: MDT) with a price target of $90. Analyst Kristen Stewart said investors should buy weakness.

The analyst explained, "We continue to rate MDT a Buy. Why? We see a number of recently and to-be launched products should sustain at least mid single digit sales constant currency growth. There are several catalysts including medical conference (SAGES, ACC), investor briefings, and notably the June 6 Analyst Day that should reinforce this view. The leverage is coming through and cost savings with the Covidien, but FX is masking it. MDT now trades at a slight discount to the market and some of its peers despite more predictable sales and EPS, and superior cash flow profile as we view its Irish domicile worthy of a premium."
