Atricure (ATRC) Receives a Buy from Needham


In a report released today, Michael Matson from Needham reiterated a Buy rating on Atricure (ATRC), with a price target of $39. The company’s shares closed yesterday at $32.18.

Matson said:

“We hosted investor meetings with Coast this week. The meetings were consistent with our positive thesis on ATRC: we think that underpenetrated markets, minimal to no competition, and new product launches should allow ATRC to sustain double-digit revenue growth and continue to “beat and raise” vs. conservative guidance/consensus estimates. We believe that the shares’ valuation remains attractive and see potential for the CONVERGE results to serve as a major catalyst in 2019 and we reiterate our Buy rating.”

According to TipRanks.com, Matson is a 5-star analyst with an average return of 11.0% and a 62.3% success rate. Matson covers the Healthcare sector, focusing on stocks such as Boston Scientific Corp, Cardiovascular Systems, and Zimmer Biomet Holdings.
