Citing 'Lightning Fast Growth,' Needham Upgrades This Vascular Device Company

  • Needham upgraded Penumbra Inc (NYSE: PEN) to Buy from Hold, with a price target of $244.

  • The analyst notes that management indicated PEN is seeing stronger growth in 3Q22 due to an improvement in hospital staffing, share gains, or a combination of these.

  • Penumbra recently announced European approval for RED Reperfusion Catheters, which are part of the company's Penumbra System, a fully integrated mechanical aspiration thrombectomy system designed to restore blood flow in acute ischemic stroke patients.

  • Related: With Sustained Double-Digit Growth Profile, RBC Starts Coverage On This MedTech Stock.

  • The analyst believes the international RED catheter launches should help to drive faster stroke growth as soon as 4Q22.

  • Needham also writes that the upcoming intelligent aspiration launches should drive faster growth starting in 2023.

  • In its Neuro business, PEN plans to launch Thunderbolt in 2H23 after it completes its THUNDER IDE trial, which is now underway.

  • In its Vascular business, the company plans to launch its Lightning Flash and Lightning Bolt products in 2023, which are new versions of its intelligent aspiration system.

  • The analyst expects the Lightning systems to drive growth through increased thrombectomy market penetration and market share gains.

  • Price Action: PEN shares are up 2.62% at $202.67 on the last check Friday.
