Caitlin Cronin has given her Buy rating due to a combination of factors including Stryker’s strong financial performance and strategic initiatives. The company reported impressive quarterly results, surpassing revenue and earnings expectations, which highlights its robust operational execution. Additionally, Stryker’s orthopedic segment, particularly knees, hips, and trauma & extremities, showed significant growth, driven by innovation and new product launches.
Cronin also noted Stryker’s strategic portfolio reshaping, such as the acquisition of Inari Medical and the divestiture of its US spinal implants business, which positions the company in higher-growth markets. Despite potential tariff impacts, Stryker remains committed to improving operating margins and has raised its revenue guidance, reflecting confidence in its ongoing growth trajectory. These factors collectively support the Buy rating, as Stryker is well-positioned to maintain its growth momentum and gain market share in the MedTech industry.
