On October 19, Natera rose 3.03% in Regular Trading, trading around $404.09 per share, with turnover of $119 million.
The move was accompanied by renewed market focus on an investment-bank target increase and the company’s recent oncology-testing milestones. Morgan Stanley recently raised its price target to $435 from $355 and maintained an Overweight rating, reinforcing expectations for further valuation re-rating.
Additional background remains supportive: Natera’s multi-cancer early detection assay received FDA Breakthrough Device Designation, Signatera was approved in Japan as a companion diagnostic for muscle-invasive bladder cancer, and skin cancer and breast cancer clinical programs are advancing. Earlier, the company reported second-quarter revenue of $752.8 million, up 37.7% year over year, and lifted full-year revenue guidance to $2.85 billion to $2.91 billion.
