We expect Olympus to emerge from the morass of its loss concealment scandal in FY3/14. Our FY3/14 estimates factor in a reduction of the imaging segment's breakeven point and a cyclical peak in the medical segment's growth rate. However, even given such an outlook, the share price has rallied to near fair value, almost fully pricing in best-case near-term improvement in earnings. ■ Bullish FY3/14 guidance for the imaging segment could prompt upward revision of the consensus outlook to parity with our earnings estimates. Heading into 2H FY3/14, however, we expect the market to shift focus to how well Olympus executes its restructuring plan. ■ Catalysts/Risks: Upside catalysts include FY3/14 guidance projecting a return to profitability in the imaging segment and robust growth driven by new products in the medical segment. Downside risks include slow progress in restructuring and continued large losses in the imaging segment. ■ Valuation: Our ¥2,500 TP is based on a FY3/14E EV/EBITDA of 9x, in line with that of the global endoscope makers' average.

In our view, the Initiate coverage with stock has almost fully priced in the best-case scenario–namely, that Olympus is set to NEUTRAL rating and decisively move beyond its loss concealment scandal as the medical segment achieves ¥2,500 TP cyclical peak growth driven by new products and the imaging segment at least breaks even by virtue of structural reforms that Olympus is expected to announce when it reports 4Q earnings. Potential downside risk in However, in terms of the imaging segment in particular, we expect the market to turn its FY3/14 if progress with attention to how well Olympus executes its restructuring plan during the 2H FY3/14 peak restructuring of imaging demand season. We are somewhat concerned about downside risk if restructuring does segment proves slower than not progress rapidly enough. expected That said, we have little doubt about the medical segment's long-term growth prospects. Little risk of negative Given the high likelihood of Olympus announcing an aggressive restructuring plan in the catalysts in the near-term aim of restoring the imaging segment's profitability, we see little risk of any negative catalysts in the near-term. We accordingly rate Olympus NEUTRAL.
