Predicted vs. what happened
What happened
Reached 40% of the predicted growth at its peak, without hitting the target.
The thesis — published July 14, 2025
U.S. health regulators just gave wider approval for FARAPULSE, a heart-treatment device made by Boston Scientific. That green light should create a new flow of sales at the same moment the stock price looks beaten down after a recent slide. Trading activity shows far fewer people willing to sell and many more stepping in to buy. With doctors starting to use the product and medical-technology funds likely to return, we see the shares climbing about 12% over the next three months while the company’s other new products keep interest high.
Primary drivers
- Wider FDA approval for FARAPULSE could add a new stream of heart-care sales.
- Stock looks oversold; heavy recent buying hints it may soon change direction.
- Very positive market mood and strong past returns attract big professional buyers.
- Many products in development mean growth is not tied to just one device.
How it played out
BSX: target missed after a 4.8% peak gain
Lyra published BSX at $104.51 on 2025-07-14 with about 12% expected growth over the short term. The thesis pointed to wider U.S. approval for FARAPULSE, an oversold setup with heavy buying, positive market mood, professional buyer interest, and a broader product pipeline.
Inside the window, BSX rose to $109.50 on 2025-09-09. That was a 4.8% peak gain, but it stayed below the $117.05 target. It never got there. The window ended at $95.41 on 2025-10-12, so the published thesis only partially played out.
What happened during the window
On 2025-07-23, Investor's Business Daily reported Boston Scientific's second-quarter results, including $5.06 billion in sales and adjusted earnings of $0.75 per share. The same article said Farapulse U.S. growth was 117%.
