Zimmerman wrote:

“Following a Great Q is a Buying Opportunity; PT to $35 We reiterate our BUY rating on KIDS following 3Q18 results. The sell-off on today’s print is a buying opportunity in our view. KIDS continues to deliver robust growth with rev. growing ~27.8% to $15.8M vs. BTIG/Consensus of $15.3M/$15.2M driven by Scoliosis momentum. T&D continues to grow north of 20% and new instrument sets are infusing into the market to support future adoption. Taking a step back, the reaction to today’s post earnings shelf filing appears overdone.”
