  • 2018 Final Proxy Statement.Pdf
    11MAR201405430317 March 28, 2018 Dear Boston Scientific Stockholder: You are cordially invited to attend the Annual Meeting of Stockholders of Boston Scientific Corporation (the Company) to be held on Thursday, May 10, 2018, at 8:00 a.m. Eastern Time, at the Company’s Corporate Headquarters located at 300 Boston Scientific Way, Marlborough, Massachusetts 01752 (Annual Meeting). This year you are being asked to: 1. elect to the Board of Directors ten nominees for director; 2. approve, on a non-binding, advisory basis, named executive officer compensation; 3. ratify the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the 2018 fiscal year; and 4. consider and vote upon such other business as may properly come before the Annual Meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof. These matters are more fully described in the accompanying Notice of Annual Meeting and Proxy Statement.

  • Stryker Corporation (SYK) Analysts: Larisa Holiday, Rigoberto Lozano, Brennan Nowers Spring 2016
    Stryker Corporation (SYK) Analysts: Larisa Holiday, Rigoberto Lozano, Brennan Nowers Spring 2016 Recommendation: HOLD Target Price until (12/31/2017): $115 1. Reasons for Recommendation We have determined a HOLD recommendation for the Portfolio’s Stryker Corporation holdings. Though the level of growth for the company is low annually, it is steady and consistently positive for a number of reasons. Stryker’s previous acquisitions show a willingness to expand operations in order to capture new markets previously unexplored by the company and its recent acquisitions in 2016 will increase product offerings and global footprint, though at the cost of increased financial leverage. Additionally, Stryker’s low market volatility and strong stock performance have provided the Portfolio with large returns despite the fluctuating economy. However, the company has struggled to achieve optimal global sales growth due to unfavorable exchange rates. Considering all of these factors, the outlook for Stryker Corporation is positive and we believe the company will continue to increase its revenues through strategic acquisitions, global expansion and increased product offerings. Stryker has recently acquired two companies and a sizeable asset portfolio in 2016 for a total of $4.09B. The largest of the three deals, Sage Products LLC, was bought for $2.78B using debt in the form of selling $3.5B of unsecured senior notes. This debt was used for both the acquisition of the company 2 and to pay off previous debt maturing in September 2016. ​ Although this large increase in leverage ​ 5 caused a downgrade of Stryker’s unsecured senior note rating by Moody’s from A3 to Baa1 ,​ the ​ acquisition is well­aligned with Stryker’s operations and looks to add value to the company starting this year.
