The Laboratory Corporation of America Holdings (LabCorp) is slated for bright prospects, as it consistently beats earnings estimates and expands operational margins. The stock has proven resilient against competitors, even on down days. LabCorp's partner, Geneoscopy, recently achieved FDA approval for ColoSense, a colorectal cancer test. This aligns with Q1 2024 results which saw Revenue surpass expectations, though EPS lagged. There are also talks of a strategic asset acquisition with Legacy Health. Much attention is given to LabCorp's dividend payments, set at $0.72. However, stock activity remains mixed, with Swiss National Bank, Russell Investments Group Ltd and Kestra Private Wealth Services LLC taking profits. Highlighting the company's robust financials, it's reported strong Q4 performance, encourages investors to hold on despite valuation concerns. LabCorp has made several significant moves, including winning a bid for select Invitae assets, acquiring select assets of BioReference Health's Diagnostics Business and expanding diagnostic reach through a strategic deal. However, there have been some sell-offs by insiders and it's yet to be seen how these will impact the stock's overall performance.
