Benchmark Raises PT On MHP To $41

Benchmark has released a report in which the Price Target of The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc.

is raised to $41.00. Benchmark writes, "We maintain our Hold rating on McGraw-Hill and previous EPS estimates, but raise our price target to $41 using a market multiple of EPS (14x). While the outlook has improved for financial services, this remains offset by expected weakness in the Education Group." MHP closed at $38.55 yesterday.
