Impact · against what's priced in

- The price assumes
New high-growth indications (cardiac 39%, SP 61%, Ion 36%) scaling fast enough to offset GLP-1 headwinds and structural U.S. deceleration
While the GI system represents a new growth avenue, the market already assigns significant value to the company's ability to scale new platforms like Ion. Since the GI system is in early development and won't generate near-term revenue, it does not move the needle on current valuations.
