▼ + stars: | 2024-07-23 | by ( Zev Fima | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +10 min

That improvement in the bioprocessing end market is super important because it has been a huge overhang for Danaher shares, and the life sciences space in general. We were concerned about the bioprocessing market after rival Sartorius cut its guidance last week. The management team has effectively navigated the bioprocessing slowdown better than others and kept expectations managed — a big reason we've stuck by the stock during a difficult few quarters. Based on these strong results and the improving bioprocessing market, we are raising our price target to $295 from $280 and reiterating our 1 rating. All three operating segments are expected to post sales decline rates in the low single digits.

☆ It's time to get bullish on this health tech name, now that it's shed a drag on growth

In the separation , we decided to keep the 173 shares of Veralto we received due to our ownership of 520 shares of Danaher. When we do that, we see a very favorable picture heading into next year and three reasons to be bullish. Veralto management is targeting long-term core growth in the mid-single-digit range on a percentage basis, whereas Danaher management sees ex-Veralto growth at a high-single-digit rate over the long term. So, as it stands we're already looking at a business that stands to see overall growth accelerate. It's also worth noting that our portfolio stands to benefit from any growth in the stand-alone shares of Veralto.

Those potential returns can come from two places: Danaher stock and shares of Veralto (VLTO), the soon-to-be-standalone company that's in the business of water quality. When we receive Veralto shares on Monday, as all Danaher shareholders will, we intend to keep them, based on their current expected value. A "when-issued" market was established Wednesday for both Danaher and Veralto stock, providing a first look at how investors are valuing the companies on their own. Investors will receive one share in Veralto for every three shares of Danaher they own. The caveat is that spin-off debuts can see substantial volatility, and if Veralto shares were to receive a big pop, our discipline may require us to capitalize on that and take profits.

When excluding the impact of declining Covid testing sales — but keeping in revenue from products that support vaccines and therapeutics — Danaher's base business saw core growth of 7.5%. Guidance Management expects overall core revenue growth to be down mid-single-digits on a percentage for the first quarter. For the full year 2023, management expects overall core revenue growth to be down mid-single-digits. Previously, only revenues related to Covid testing were excluded. On the call, management pointed to roughly 10% core revenue growth in both North America and Europe.

☆ Danaher's decision to spin off its water business is a win-win for long-term investors
▼ + stars: | 2022-09-15 | by ( Zev Fima | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +5 min

Danaher 's (DHR) announcement this week that it will spin off its growing water business is a big win for shareholders — including us at the Club. In both cases, after an initial growth hit due to the divestitures, we saw a notable sales growth acceleration once these slower growth business were on their own. More good news: Danaher's management team said 2022 core revenue growth is expected to be above the prior guidance range thanks higher-than-anticipated respiratory testing revenue at Cepheid. Base business core revenue growth is still expected to be up in the high-single-digit range. Whereas, they think EAS has a longer-term core revenue growth profile in the mid-single-digit range.
