Resmed's $490M Sale Looks Strategically Sound

Jul 09

0054 GMT - ResMed's $490 million sale of its MatrixCare business looks strategically sound to its bull at Macquarie. One of the investment bank's analysts writes in a note that the divestment will allow the dual-listed breath-tech maker to sharpen its focus and to reallocate capital toward faster-growing core growth areas. Offloading a structurally challenged business and improving the company's growth profile makes sense to the analyst, who keeps an outperform rating on the stock. Stock catalysts include potential M&A activity and new product launches, the analyst adds. Macquarie lifts its target price on ResMed's ASX-listed stock by 0.2% to 46.60 Australian dollars. Shares are down 3.8% at A$29.995. (stuart.condie@wsj.com)
