ICU Medical Earnings: Normalizing Operations Bring Additional Synergies With Smiths Integration
No-moat ICU Medical reported fourth-quarter results in line with our expectations. However, we are trimming our fair value estimate to $161 per share from $177 because of lower-than-expected 2024 guidance from management. ICU’s integration with Smiths Medical is taking longer than our original projection, but we remain optimistic about the potential cost-saving synergies in the long term.
