Cantor Fitzgerald analyst Bryan Brokmeier believes Roche (RHHBY) may have approached Pacific Biosciences (PACB) to discuss an acquisition, as reported by Reuters, but he thinks that the two companies are too far apart on price and an acquisition most likely won't occur until the second half of this year or later. However, he believes Pacific Biosciences shares currently trade at a compelling valuation and recommends that investors buy on any dips. Brokmeier keeps a Buy rating and $18 price target on the stock.
