Walgreens Boots Alliance, Alaska Air And RH Are Among Top Mid-Cap Gainers Last Week (December 9-13): Are The Others In Your Portfolio?

On Wednesday,&nbsp;Patient Square Capital, a healthcare investment firm, agreed to acquire&nbsp;Patterson Companies, Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PDCO#NASDAQ">PDCO</a>), a dental and animal health product distributor, for&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/12/b42433177/patterson-companies-announces-definitive-agreement-to-be-acquired-by-patient-square-capital-for-31" rel="noreferrer noopener">approximately $4.1 billion</a>.
During its second-quarter earnings release, the company announced it is exploring strategic options, including a sale or merger,&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42342667/dental-supplies-patterson-companies-evaluates-strategic-alternatives-after-mixed-q2-earnings-amid-challenging-end-market-environment" rel="noreferrer noopener">to boost shareholder value</a>.
William Blair notes that based on Patient Square Capital&#8217;s portfolio, which doesn&#8217;t include dental or animal health companies, regulatory hurdles for this deal are unlikely.
Additionally, the analyst&#8217;s dental valuation analysis suggests the offer for Patterson is strong, making it unlikely that higher bids will emerge during the 40-day window for competing offers.
The valuation analysis includes Align Technology Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ALGN#NASDAQ">ALGN</a>), Dentsply Sirona Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XRAY#NASDAQ">XRAY</a>), Henry Schein Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HSIC#NASDAQ">HSIC</a>), Envista Holdings Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVST#NYSE">NVST</a>) and Europe-listed Straumann Holding.
William Blair writes that most dental companies they cover are trading at or near their lowest valuations in 15 years, as investor interest has declined due to ongoing macroeconomic challenges.
Most recently,&nbsp;Dentsply Sirona revised its 2024 outlook due to market pressures impacting U.S. equipment, legislative changes affecting the direct-to-consumer aligner business model, and the voluntary&nbsp;suspension of sales, marketing, and shipments of Byte Aligners <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/11/41814727/dentsply-sirona-stock-sinks-on-dismal-2024-guidance-blames-macroeconomic-competitiv" rel="noreferrer noopener">and Impression Kits</a>.
Henry Schein&#8217;s third-quarter global dental segment sales were $1.9 billion, down 1.6%, and medical segment sales increased by 2.9% (down 4.8% internally) <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/11/41752173/henry-schein-q3-earnings-sees-recovery-from-cyber-incident-says-dental-equipment-business-shows-sta" rel="noreferrer noopener">to $1.1 billion</a>.
While it&#8217;s still early to gauge investor reactions, the analyst is considering whether Patterson&#8217;s acquisition might stabilize valuations and boost demand in the dental sector.
The analyst writes the move could support valuations and signal a potential recovery in the market, making many dental stocks appealing from a risk/reward perspective.
Among these, William Blair sees Align as having the greatest potential for stock growth, driven by improving market conditions and gains in both earnings and valuation.

Despite challenges, Eegee's continues to operate over 20 locations in Tucson and Phoenix. Local media <a href="https://www.kold.com/2024/12/06/eegees-closes-five-restaurants-files-bankruptcy/">reported</a> that the company owes significant debts, including over $1.2 million to Sysco and hundreds of thousands more to other vendors, with total liabilities ranging between $10 million and $50 million. CEO Chris Westcott cited various pressures as reasons for the restructuring, but local residents blamed 39 North Capital, Eegee's owner since 2018.

Dental supply maker Patterson Companies Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PDCO#NASDAQ">PDCO</a>) announced Thursday that it is exploring strategic options, including a sale or merger, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/mergers-and-acquisitions">to boost shareholder value</a>. 
What Happened: The company disclosed the sale process as part of its second-quarter financial report. 
Earnings were mixed, &#8220;given the challenging end market environment,&#8221; said Patterson CEO Don Zurbay.
Patterson posted second-quarter 2025 net sales of $1.67 billion. That&#8217;s up <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/12/b42335427/patterson-companies-reports-fiscal-2025-second-quarter-operating-results" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">1.3% year-over-year</a>. Wall Street expected a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/earnings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">net sales of $1.65 billion</a>. Internal sales increased just 0.6%.
Here&#8217;s a breakdown of the dental business:
<ul>
<li>Dental segment sales reached $611.7 million. </li>
<li>Internal sales decreased 2.3%. </li>
<li>Internal sales of equipment decreased 7.5%. </li>
<li>Internal sales of value-added services decreased 2.7% — likely due to a cybersecurity <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/08/40601262/patterson-ceo-blames-q1-drag-on-change-healthcare-cyberattack-timing-of-corporate-expenses">attack on Change Healthcare</a>. </li>
</ul>
As for Patterson&#8217;s animal health segment: 
<ul>
<li>Sales reached $1.05 billion. </li>
<li>Internal sales increased 1.9%. </li>
<li>Internal sales of consumables increased 1.6%</li>
<li>Equipment increased 1.4%, and </li>
<li>Value-added services increased 17.1%.</li>
</ul>
The company reported adjusted EPS of 47 cents. That&#8217;s down from 50 cents a year ago. It missed the consensus of 49 cents. 
GAAP and adjusted earnings were also negatively impacted by the Change Healthcare cyber attack.
Patterson &#8220;took dedicated cost management actions&#8221; and &#8220;made targeted investments in complementary businesses,&#8221; according to Zurbay.
Outlook: Patterson expects fiscal year 2025 adjusted EPS Of $2.25-$2.35 compared to the consensus of $2.32 and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/08/40601262/patterson-ceo-blames-q1-drag-on-change-healthcare-cyberattack-timing-of-corporate-expenses" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">prior guidance of $2.33-$2.43</a>.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">파산 블록</h2>
이지스(Eegee&#8217;s), 1971년 투손에서 설립된 인기 드라이브 스루 레스토랑 체인이 챕터 11 파산을 신청하고 투손의 네 곳과 피닉스의 한 곳, 총 다섯 개의 매장을 폐쇄했다. 도전에도 불구하고 이지스는 투손과 피닉스에 20개 이상의 매장을 계속 운영하고 있다. 현지 언론 <a href="https://www.kold.com/2024/12/06/eegees-closes-five-restaurants-files-bankruptcy/">보도에 따르면</a> 회사는 상당한 부채를 안고 있으며, 시스코(Sysco)에 120만 달러 이상, 기타 공급업체에 수십만 달러를 빚지고 있어 총 부채가 1천만 달러에서 5천만 달러 사이이다. CEO 크리스 웨스트콧(Chris Westcott)는 재구성의 이유로 여러 압박을 언급했지만, 현지 주민들은 2018년부터 이지스의 소유주인 39 노스 캐피털을 비난했다.

프로마 그룹(Proma Group)가 독일의 레카로 오토모티브 GmbH를 <a href="https://www.promagroup.com/archive/news/68" target="_blank" rel="noopener">인수함</a>으로써 회사를 파산에서 탈출시키고 2025년 1월부터 유럽 전역에서 운영을 재개할 수 있게 되었다. 레카로의 애프터마켓 시트는 1월에 다시 시장에 출시될 예정이며, OEM 생산은 프로마가 본사인 이탈리아로 이전된다. 레카로의 영업 및 기술 부서의 몇몇 직원은 원활한 전환 및 고객 지원을 보장하기 위해 슈투트가르트 지역에 남아 있다. 레카로의 북미 및 일본 운영은 영향을 받지 않는다. 프로마 그룹의 CEO인 루카 피노(Luca Pino)는 이 파트너십을 독일 산업 및 이탈리아 제조 우수성의 조합으로 칭찬했다.
