CONMED Corp. (CNMD)
CONMED Corp. (<a href=http://www.zacks.com/stock/quote/cnmd>CNMD</a>) is a major medical products manufacturer specializing in surgical instruments and devices. Approximately 59% of the company's revenues are derived from products designed for the orthopedic surgery markets of arthroscopy and powered surgical instruments. <p> The company operates in highly competitive markets against competitors that are much larger, more technically competent and possess substantially more assets. Additionally, many of these competitors offer a range of products not matched by CNMD, which may make CNMD's offerings less attractive to surgeons, hospitals and group purchasing organizations that are trying to reduce the number of vendors they do business with. <p> We believe sales related to elective procedures will slow over the coming year, adversely affecting CNMD's business in 2009, despite that 77% of revenues are recurring from the sale of disposables.
