Earnings & results · mixed signal

Guardant posted 48% revenue growth but keeps losing money and burning cash. Q2 2026 results are due after the close on July 30, which will show whether the strong top-line is starting to close the profitability gap.

Positive results from rival Freenome's blood-based cancer screening study eased worries it could displace Guardant's similar test. Separately, Guggenheim forecasts strong price appreciation for the stock.

Valuation · supporting the grade

Canaccord Genuity raised its Guardant Health price target by roughly 52% to $205, citing confidence in the company's near-term growth trajectory and potentially drawing more institutional buyers.
