Becton Dickinson price target raised to $280 from $250 at Morgan Stanley

Morgan Stanley analyst David Lewis expects Becton Dickinson will guide FY19 revenue growth to 5%-6% during its upcoming Q4 earnings, which he believes “seems achievable if not conservative.” Management is also likely to introduce revenue synergy guidance which should be higher, Lewis predicted. However, he thinks Becton’s reported earnings guidance is likely to come in below the Street consensus. Lewis raised his price target on Becton Dickinson shares to $280 to reflect a roll forward to CY20 estimates and he keeps an Equal Weight rating on the stock.
