Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about IRHYTHM TECH stock:

• 1. According to Zacks Investment Research, "iRhythm Technologies, Inc. is a digital healthcare company. It focuses on the provision of ambulatory electrocardiogram, monitoring for patients at risk for arrhythmias primarily in the United States. The company offers ZIO Service, a platform which provides wearable biosensor with cloud-based data analytics that distill data from heartbeats into clinically actionable information. iRhythm Technologies, Inc. is headquartered in San Francisco, California. " (8/8/2017)
• 2. Canaccord Genuity analysts commented, "We reiterate our BUY rating on shares of IRTC following recent FDA approval of the firm’s next generation Zio platform with timely data transmission capabilities. Approval for the platform comes a bit earlier than our expectations, with IRTC seemingly on track for a US market launch in 2H:17E. While we expect a measured ramp – given the firm will once again engage insurers vis-à-vis the contracting process for this new technology – we surmise that FDA approval for this market-expanding, next-generation platform opens up the MCOT TAM (thus the remainder of the A-ECG market) to the firm, allowing IRTC to address 100% of physician A-ECG needs over time. While the real-time segment of the A-ECG market represents an incremental addition to IRTC’s currently addressable TAM, we see the real value of this offering to be implicit in iRhythm’s ability to become a full-line supplier for its customers, targeting both first- and second-line A-ECG monitoring (currently Zio targets only first-line), as well as expansion into new indications such as post-AF ablation, post-cardiac surgery and post- ischemic stroke. In sum, we continue to see the potential for material upside to forward estimates, as IRTC is still early in its campaign to drive a paradigm change in the ambulatory ECG monitoring space. Further, we expect the firm’s vast competitive moat – consisting of substantial clinical data, proprietary back-end analytics and robust IP – as supportive of sustainable (20%+-type) growth for several years to come."
