Leerink analyst Michael Cherny downgraded Patterson Companies (PDCO) to Market Perform from Outperform with a price target of $31.35, up from $29, based on the takeout price agreed upon by Patient Square Capital following the company’s go-private transaction. The firm views the multiple paid for the transaction as “reasonable” and thus sees any meaningful “topticking” bid as unlikely, the analyst tells investors.
