Healthequity (HQY) Gets a Hold Rating from Cantor Fitzgerald


Cantor Fitzgerald analyst Steven Halper reiterated a Hold rating on Healthequity (HQY) today and set a price target of $82. The company’s shares closed on Tuesday at $83.60.

Halper said:

“. We reiterate our Neutral rating on HQY shares and increase our price target to $82 from $80. After the market close on the company reported strong F3Q19 results that were ahead of our estimates and FactSet consensus. HQY raised its full year guidance ranges at their midpoints. We believe the company is poised for strong growth in F20. HQY’s 4Q is the company’s most active quarter for new member growth. The company also mentioned investments it will be making in 4Q and FY2020. The investments will be offset by a lower than expected tax rate. We maintain our view that the shares’ current valuation already reflects the company’s long-term growth potential.”
