Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about Henry Schein stock:

• 1. According to Zacks Investment Research, "In the past three months, Henry Schein has consistently outperformed the S&P 500 Market at large with respect to share price movement. Apart from balanced segmental growth across all its operating segments, the company’s share gains in both the U.S. and overseas markets raise optimism. Management is also upbeat about several strategic tie ups made during the reported quarter. We are also positive about Henry Schein’s buyout of Marrodent and SAS which have the potential to capture the bountiful dental market opportunities. On the flip side despite a strong quarterly show last time, the company’s unchanged EPS guidance for 2017 is uninspiring. Meanwhile, Henry Schein’s venture in digital dentistry through Dentsply Sirona deal may intensify its already weak operating margin scenario on escalating education and training expenses. Also, foreign currency fluctuations continued to mar the company’s financials." (6/23/2017)
• 2. Evercore ISI analysts commented, "HSIC continues to deliver consistent HSD to LDD EPS growth despite an operating environment that has been somewhat mixed, albeit North American Dental continues to show signs of recovery. With the acquisition engine still churning and an elevated level of buybacks, management has been able to deliver the type of TSR expected and thus the valuation remains notably elevated on an absolute basis (less so on a relative basis). While we also value consistency and predictability, we acknowledge we missed the November entry point (fears of US slowdown) and thus at current levels see risk / reward as more fully balanced (particularly with extra week headwind in 2017 + unfavorable Fx environment). Given this dynamic we reiterate our Hold rating and argue shares are now accurately pricing in the current operating environment. Thus we await another period of uncertainty prior to revisiting our long-term constructive view on shares." (2/21/2017)
