Cochlear Gets New Bull Despite Potential 1H Earnings Miss -- Market Talk

Dow Jones
01/19

2340 GMT - Hearing implant maker Cochlear gets a new bull in RBC Capital Markets despite it warning of potential disappointment at its upcoming 1H result. RBC upgrades Cochlear to outperform, from sector perform, and raises its price target by 10% to A$325.00/share. "We believe Cochlear could miss consensus forecasts due to weaker than expected performance in CI and Services," says analyst Craig Wong-Pan. RBC forecasts 1H revenue of A$1.19 billion, slightly below consensus estimates of A$1.22 billion. It thinks net profit will fall short of expectations, projecting A$196 million versus a market forecast of A$205 million. Still, it thinks management will keep annual underlying profit guidance of A$435 million-A$460 million intact, albeit with a pronounced 2H skew due partly to the timing of the Nucleus Nexa implant system launch.
