Oppenheimer Remains a Buy on Omnicell (OMCL)


In a report released today, Mohan Naidu from Oppenheimer reiterated a Buy rating on Omnicell (OMCL), with a price target of $86. The company’s shares closed yesterday at $65.15.

Naidu commented:

“Omnicell reported bookings growth of 26% to beat the top end of guidance ($59M above midpoint). Fairly sizable deals came in ahead of expectations in the quarter boosting bookings. Strong CY19 guidance, which was ahead of our Street-high estimates, further validates the traction the company is getting with its multi-product platform strategy. OMCL’s multiple product launches are starting to deliver results with over 90% of the large deals including multiple products. We believe the transition to a multi-product platform is a key differentiator and is positioning the company as the strategic partner for Rx solutions. The traction with Omnicell’s products makes us believe in higher-than-historical growth for the next few years. Increasing our CY19 estimates to 13.6% growth. Reiterate our Outperform rating and $86 target.”
