Leerink upgraded Community Health (CYH) to Outperform from Market Perform on lower expectations and leverage. Analyst Ana Gupte says the company missed and guided down in Q1, but expectations have become "more realistic." The analyst sees the mid-point of guidance to be achievable and expects the leverage ratio to go down with the proceeds of Quorum Health (QHC) spin out and sale of assets used to de-lever. Gupte raised her price target on Community Health's shares to $21 from $20.
