Wright Medical Biz May Slow - Zibb.com

Wright Medical Group Inc. (WMGI) is a global orthopedic device company specializing in reconstructive joint devices and bio-orthopedic materials. The company offers large joint implants for the hip and knee; extremity implants for the hand, elbow, shoulder, foot and ankle; and both synthetic and tissue-based bone graft substitute materials. We expect these end-markets to experience a slowdown during the next 12-18 months related to the current economic climate.The company reported better-than-expected third quarter results due to solid growth in extremities, knees, and hips. Wright Medical reduced its 2008 revenue expectations by $1 - $3 million to $464-$467 million and narrowed EPS by two cents to $0.88-$0.90. We are leaving our estimates unchanged. We have now removed any expectations from the U.S. approval of Conserve Plus from our estimates. Given our low but improving EPS outlook, which includes stock-based compensation expense, we value the company on a blend of comparables average revenue multiple and comparables average P/E/G. At an average of 2.7x the group average 2008 revenue estimate and 1.4x 2008 industry average P/E/G, our valuation target moves to $27.25.Read the full analyst report on WMGI
