Review Of Preliminary FY 2016 Results
Deutsche Bank noted that Perrigo reported 2016 revenues of $5.5 billion and expects adjusted earnings per share of $7.10–$7.25, both metrics ahead of its estimates.
The company did not provide detailed financials, pending finalization of its 10-K due to a delay in finalizing impairments. The company expects cash flow from operations of $1.01 billion, above its previous estimate of $900 million and Deutsche Bank's estimate of $950 million.
The firm also noted the company's plans to divest the Tysabri royalty stream to Royalty Pharma for $2.2 billion upfront and up to $650 million in sales-based milestones. Commenting on the terms, Deutsche Bank said the sales price was somewhat below what it was expecting.
Lowering Estimates
Deutsche Bank lowered its 2017 revenue estimate to $5.2 billion from $5.3 billion and 2018 estimate to $5.3 billion from $5.4 billion, premised on lower sales for Consumer Healthcare Americas and Consumer Healthcare International, partially offset by higher sales for its generics business. The 2017 earnings per share estimate stands reduced to $6.50 from $6.89 and 2018 estimate to $7.13 from $7.20.
Execution Critical
Concluding, Deutsche Bank said it continues to view Perrigo as a unique asset with good value creation potential over the longer term. According to the firm, the recently refreshed board is a constructive step. The firm thinks execution against the company's own goals in the coming quarters will be critical.
Deutsche Bank maintains its Buy rating on the shares of Perrigo, while it trimmed its price target to $93 from $95.
At the time of writing, shares of Perrigo were down 11.22 percent at $75.18 on roughly four times average volume.
