live up to expectations on a regular basis. Analysts have been moving to increase estimates
for ABMD stock as of late, pushing the company to a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy).
Shares of this innovative company have been very volatile, but they are still sporting nice
gains over the past year, including a roughly 40% increase over the past twelve months.
However, shares are still down YTD, which could actually be a good entry point for the
stock. The medical instrument sector currently has a rank in the top 25%, so there is definitely plenty of potential behind most companies in this space these days.

combined companies (ending October 2017) from $9.66 to $11.10 in the past 60 days. That
15% bump represents over 20% EPS growth in that fiscal year, reflecting a sub-13X P/E multiple for a key Apple supplier in mobile and strong broadband network builder for top global

in at $178 Million versus the $171 Million expected. In the last four years they have missed
EPS only once. While the beat was nice, the guidance is what got investors excited. Himax
guided Q1 EPS at $0.55-0.75 versus the $.02 expected and revenue at $176.2 Million versus
the $185 Million expected. The guidance and momentum of the stock has no doubt forced
analysts to adjust their numbers. Over the last month, analysts have revised estimates 66%
higher for fiscal year 2016. Recent earnings and improving fundamentals have the stock in
a position to break out over the $10 mark and potentially test the 2014 highs. The 2.75%
