Shares of medical device company Penumbra (NYSE:PEN)
jumped 13.6% in the afternoon session after the company reported impressive fourth-quarter 2024 results, which blew past analysts' constant currency revenue, EBITDA, and earnings expectations. Sales grew by 10.8% compared to the previous year due to strong performance in its U.S. thrombectomy business, which surged 27.3%. This strength helped offset a 16.5% decline in international sales, largely due to weaker performance in China. However, despite the strong quarter, full-year revenue guidance for 2025 fell slightly short of expectations.
Looking ahead, the company expects continued growth in its U.S. thrombectomy business, particularly from its computer-assisted vacuum thrombectomy (CAVT) products. That said, international market softness remains a concern.
