Key Takeaways
-
Market Expectations for 2025: Analysts anticipate a significant increase in earnings per share (EPS) growth, expecting double-digit growth across the board and over 15% growth for diagnostics and consumer health segments in 2025.
-
Medtech Sector Performance: While the medtech sector showed strong performance at the beginning of 2024, valuations experienced a downturn in the second quarter, leading to broad underperformance compared to major indexes.
-
Best and Worst Performers: Natera and Insulet outperformed with gains of 18.4% and 17.8%, respectively, while Illumina, Exact Sciences, and Eurofins saw declines over 20%.
