Tivity Health Inc (TVTY) Received its Third Buy in a Row


After Craig-Hallum and Cantor Fitzgerald gave Tivity Health Inc (NASDAQ: TVTY) a Buy rating last month, the company received another Buy, this time from Oppenheimer. Analyst Mohan Naidu maintained a Buy rating on Tivity Health Inc today and set a price target of $36. The company’s shares closed yesterday at $22.60.

Naidu observed:

“TVTY reported better than expected numbers in both Healthcare and Nutrition segments. Strong visit growth in the SilverSneakers program and lift in new subscribers in the Prime program lifted the healthcare segment revenues, offsetting UNH attrition. TV Media spend in the beginning of the year is producing strong results and we expect to see continued focus to drive SilverSneakers enrollment and utilization. Nutrisystem posted much better than expected results after the slow start to the year with 2H of the quarter seeing lift in activations due to the timed media spend. Positive results in the quarter, stabilizing Nutrisystem segment and increasing confidence in the cross-sell into health plans should improve investor sentiment. Increasing our target to $36. Reiterate Outperform.”
