After analyzing his financial estimates and the company's financial position, Deutsche Bank analyst Chris Rigg believes the likelihood of Community Health Systems breaching its secured debt leverage covenant is low through 2019. The analyst says his analysis follows "market speculation over a near term credit event" at the company. He reduced his 2018 EBITDA estimate by 4% to $1.764B, which he notes is now well below consensus of $1.837B. Rigg keeps a Hold rating on Community Health with an $8 price target.
