Cantor Fitzgerald analyst Steven Halper reiterated a Buy rating on R1 RCM Inc today and set a price target of $11. The company’s shares opened today at $9.78.

Halper observed:

“. We reiterate our Overweight rating on RCM shares and maintain our price target of $11. This morning, the company reported 4Q18 results, with revenue and adjusted EBITDA above our estimates. Results continue to benefit from increased profitability implemented in 2017 and earlier in 2018. RCM reaffirmed its previously provided guidance ranges for both 2019 and 2020. The company continues to expect that it will add another significant operating partner this year, which would drive higher revenue but lower adjusted EBITDA. Overall, we believe R1 continues to execute on its strategy of ramping new contracts and improving its internal processes with the help of technology.”

According to TipRanks.com, Halper is a top 100 analyst with an average return of 20.4% and a 66.0% success rate. Halper covers the Services sector, focusing on stocks such as WellCare Health Plans, Tivity Health Inc, and Evolent Health.
