Allscripts (MDRX) Receives a Rating Update from a Top Analyst


In a report released today, Steven Halper from Cantor Fitzgerald maintained a Hold rating on Allscripts (MDRX), with a price target of $12. The company’s shares opened today at $9.83, close to its 52-week low of $9.24.

Halper noted:

“MDRX shares continue to have upside to our DCF-based price target of $12. Key assumptions in our model include mid-to-high single-digit revenue growth for the next few years, continued margin improvement, and WACC of 8.15%. While core performance appears to be improving, the EIS acquisition should result in stronger EPS growth, at least in the 2018-2019 time frame. Accordingly, we rate the shares at Overweight.”

According to TipRanks.com, Halper is a top 25 analyst with an average return of 19.5% and a 67.8% success rate. Halper covers the Services sector, focusing on stocks such as WellCare Health Plans, Hms Holdings Corp, and Tivity Health Inc.
