- 2. Needham & Company LLC analysts commented, "Market open, Ellex announced preliminary FY19 revenue below our expectations and IFRS EBITDA slightly narrower than our expectations. iTrack, 2RT and Tango lasers delivered FY19 y/y revenue growth, but overall growth was below our estimates. Ellex announced the appointment of Maria Maieli, current CFO, as Interim CEO. Ellex expects to release final F2H19 results on August 29, 2019." (7/23/2019)
- 3. According to Zacks Investment Research, "The declining CRHF segment raises concern for Medtronic. Escalating costs and expenses continue to weigh on Medtronic’s bottom line. On a positve note, in the past year, shares of Medtronic outperformed its industry. The company is successfully registering sustainable growth across major groups and regions, in addition to displaying successful achievement of synergy targets. The company is focusing on geographical diversification of its businesses. This apart, the company has been seeing certain favorable developments in its Diabetes business. The updated 2019 guidance with raised EPS view increases investors’ confidence on the stock. Meanwhile, we are optimistic about the recently-closed acquisition of Mazor Robotics which is expected to fortify Medtronic's position in spine surgery." (5/20/2019)
- 4. Barclays PLC analysts commented, "We now project $5.15 versus $5.12 consensus. Formal FY20 guidance will come in May but mgmt expressed comfort with the Street EPS estimate (per Refinitiv $5.44) which implies ~5.6% y/y growth off the revised mid- point for FY19. In Jan, mgmt said a higher tax rate could prompt EPS growth to be up to 250bp below its 8% long-range plan (LRP) CAGR target. Mgmt noted it is still working through its options for financial engineering. We think FY20 is likely a back- end loaded year given revenue cadence considerations (i.e. comps, new products launches) as well as FX impacts. We now est. $5.42 vs. $5.38 prior. Net/net, nothing materially changed our view. We think the valuation offers some upside and we rate MDT OW. That said, the upside case may take time to work out as execution confidence builds and many pipeline milestones are more 2020 events." (2/20/2019)
