Canaccord analyst William Plovanic downgraded Merit Medical to Hold from Buy with a price target of $72, down from $73, citing valuation and his view that there is "little room to upside from current levels." He sees limited catalysts to drive a premium valuation given the company’s product set, new product pipeline and investor expectations, said Plovanic, who adds that he believes the current valuation make speculated about private equity buy-out unlikely.
