How this is calculated: We use a Growth Decay Model: starting with analyst consensus growth (adjusted above) and gradually slowing it down to a long-term terminal rate (4%) by Year 5. This provides a more realistic valuation than assuming constant hyper-growth. We then apply a 21.9x Exit PE.

In-depth Analysis How we analyze

Valuation Analysis: CDNA is currently trading at $20.55, which is considered slightly high relative to its 30-day fair value range of $18.81 to $20.79. The stock's valuation (Forward PE: 23.9) is in line with its historical norms (21.9). At these levels, the market is pricing in 2.9% annual earnings growth. This growth rate appears achievable given the company's track record, suggesting the valuation is rational.

Technical Outlook: Technically, CDNA is in a strong uptrend. Immediate support is located at $19.48, while resistance sits at $21.48.

Market Sentiment: The stock shows a mixed technical setup (55/100), with neutral trendline and momentum signals. In the options market, Implied Volatility is low (27th percentile), suggesting options premiums are relatively cheap. This makes it an attractive time for long options strategies if you have a directional bias. Combining these factors, the current setup offers a favorable risk/reward ratio for buyers.
