Lifeward shares were higher as the medical device company received Food and Drug Administration 510(k) clearance for the ReWalk 7, the newest version of its personal exoskeleton product.
The stock was recently up 37% to $2.01, with an intraday range of $1.67 to $2.95. Volume was more than 95.5 million shares, compared with a 65-day average of 764,405.
The ReWalk is a motorized device that aids movement for some people with lower body paralysis.
Last week, Lifeward said full-year revenue rose to $25.7 million from $13.9 million. It said ReWalk Personal Exoskeleton sales increased by 130% in 2024, fueled by recently established Medicare coverage.
The company formerly known as ReWalk Robotics has been working to reduce operating losses, with moves including closing two U.S. facilities.
