More Earnings Upgrades Likely From Sonic Healthcare -- Market Talk
2219 GMT - Sonic Healthcare's latest trading update suggests more EPS upgrades are likely in FY 2022, Morgan Stanley says. Sonic's revenue lifted 5% to A$3.09B in the first four months of FY 2022, while Ebitda rose by 16% to A$991M. If that continues through December then Sonic's 1H revenue and Ebitda would beat consensus by 2% and 16%, respectively. "Additionally, Sonic states that base business revenue grew 6% versus the prior corresponding period and 4% versus the same period in FY 2020 (i.e. pre-pandemic)," says Morgan Stanley, adding that its broadly in line with its estimates. "We expect testing volumes to remain variable and note recent case surges in Germany in particular." (david.winning@wsj.com; @dwinningWSJ)
