NTRA BUY $325.00

Ahead of 2Q earnings, we assess setups across our diagnostics coverage BLLN HOLD $105.00

including GH (Shield bogey), NTRA (Signatera volumes) and CAI (CGP volumes). QDEL HOLD $14.00

We also update models for NTRA (due to a stronger out-year revenue outlook CAI BUY $27.00

remains fully-priced) and QDEL (China impact in '27), while we recently updated

our model for VCYT.

KEY CHANGES INCLUDE:

Guardant Health (GH, Buy). Shield volumes remain a key KPI for 2Q, with sell-side estimates sitting TICKER RATING PRICE TARGET

at 53.6k. That said, we think the buyside is closer to 55k+, with potential upside from the Quest (DGX) NTRA BUY $325.00 ($275.00)

partnership and sales rep productivity. ACS inclusion is unlikely to influence 2Q estimates, in our

view, but we expect commentary on the Shield revenue trajectory over the next year as commercial

payers enter into contracts, including UnitedHealth Group (more here). Similarly, we expect G360 QDEL HOLD $14.00 ($12.50)

Liquid to be a highlight, although the trajectory of ADLT pricing over the next 1-2 years (JEFe 20%

+ upside to '28 revenues - more here) is likely to overshadow 2Q-specific commentary (barring a

major beat/miss). Exhibit 1 - NTRA Quarterly MRD Unit Growth
