Shares have broken out of their bullish "flag" following several positive developments for the company. Last month, the firm reported quarterly results that matched and exceeded the estimates. The firm reported results of a seven year study of its Secure-C device. The study demonstrated superiority of the SECURE-C® Cervical Artificial Disc over the current standard for the treatment of cervical disc disease, anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF), based on overall success. SECURE-C® is designed for disc reconstruction and motion preservation at the operated disc level, unlike traditional motion-eliminating fusion surgery.
Shares are heading higher in an upward trading channel. The lower boundary of the said channel coincides with the stock's 50-day moving average. Higher share prices are expected for this stock.
