Barclays analyst Eric Percher believes McKesson's Q4 results and FY18 outlook commentary validate his thesis that independent channel pricing pressures largely reset by the end of 2016 and distributor volume began to rebound. The analyst notes that when adjusting for certain items, the FY18 adjusted earnings outlook of $11.75-$12.45 modestly beat his estimate. Percher sees catalysts for multiple expansion and reiterates an Overweight rating on McKesson with a $174 price target.
