Healthcare Solutions Trends And M&A Prospects: AmerisourceBergen Gets A Price Target Hike Amid Upside Scenarios


27% profit every 20 days?

This is what Nic Chahine averages with his option buys. Not selling covered calls or spreads… BUYING options. Most traders don’t even have a winning percentage of 27% buying options. He has an 83% win rate. Here’s how he does it.


  • Mizuho analyst Ann Hynes reiterated a Neutral rating on the shares of AmerisourceBergen Corporation (NYSE:ABC), raising the price target to $174 from $170.
  • After delivering solid results in Q2, AmerisourceBergen raised revenue and adjusted operating income growth guidance.
  • For FY23, AmerisourceBergen expects adjusted EPS in the range of $11.70-$11.90, up from prior guidance of $11.50-$11.75
  • The analyst believes that the increased guidance was mainly driven by improving core U.S. Healthcare Solutions trends, a lower share count, and, importantly, updated FX, which is now expected to be a slight tailwind in the back half of FY2023.
  • While discussing upside scenarios, the analyst notes that future potential M&A opportunities create additional growth opportunities, driving better-than-expected earnings accretion.
  • These apart, incremental share repurchase or debt pay down can help AmerisourceBergen to diversify away from variable rate debt and lessen exposure to the rising interest rate environment.
  • Price Action: ABC shares are trading higher by 0.68% at $168.01 on the last check Wednesday.
