2230 GMT - Ord Minnett is delighted with Echo IQ's heads of agreement with Pro Medicus to establish the framework for a strategic investment and U.S. commercial partnership. Pro Medicus will invest an initial A$10 million. This will be followed by another A$10 million if Echo IQ's EchoSolv product gets approval by the Food and Drug Administration. "We view the key benefits of the deal as three-fold," says analyst Tom Godfrey. It is a material endorsement and a validation datapoint from a global imaging tech leader in Pro Medicus. It also gives a timely boost to Echo IQ's cash position and leads to a step-change in its immediate U.S. commercialization opportunity. Ord Minnett raises its price target on Echo IQ by 20%, to A$1.80/share. Echo IQ ended Thursday at A$1.615. (david.winning@wsj.com; @dwinningWSJ)
