BMO Capital raised the firm’s price target on Grand Canyon (LOPE) to $222 from $208 and keeps an Outperform rating on the shares after the firm’s recent non-deal roadshow. Grand Canyon has shown its ability to grow regardless of the political landscape, and the current environment should be beneficial as the value of its programs are becoming more appreciated by regulators with whom the company has consistent dialogue, the analyst tells investors in a research note. Operating trends for the company are also favorable, specifically in Hybrid/Orbis, which should grow at double-digit rate in the intermediate-term given strong demand for nursing and adding new programs, BMO added.
