OrthoPediatrics price target lowered to $39 by BTIG on mixed results

Investing.com - BTIG has lowered its price target on OrthoPediatrics Corp. (NASDAQ:KIDS) to $39.00 from $40.00 while maintaining a Buy rating following the company’s second-quarter 2025 results. The stock, currently trading at $20.19, sits near its 52-week low of $19.52, according to InvestingPro data.

OrthoPediatrics reported revenue of $61.1 million, representing 16% year-over-year growth, slightly below BTIG and consensus estimates of $61.5 million. The company’s Trauma & Deformity sales reached $41.7 million (up 10.3% year-over-year), Scoliosis sales were $18.5 million (up 35.4%), and Sports Medicine/Other sales fell to $0.9 million (down 32.9%).

Underperformance in Trauma & Deformity (4% below Street expectations) and Sports Medicine (36.3% below Street estimates) was offset by Scoliosis sales exceeding projections by approximately 11.6%. Gross margin and operating margin missed Street expectations by approximately 170 basis points and 720 basis points respectively, attributed to higher 7D and international set sales along with a one-time restructuring charge.

Despite the mixed quarterly results, OrthoPediatrics slightly raised its full-year 2025 guidance to $237-242 million (representing 16-18% year-over-year growth) from previous guidance of $236-242 million. The company maintained its adjusted EBITDA forecast of $15-17 million as its OPSB strategy gains momentum in the second half of 2025.

BTIG noted that OrthoPediatrics shares remain at a depressed valuation of approximately 1.5x next-twelve-months EV/Sales despite maintaining a solid high-teens growth rate. The firm cited new clinic ramps, new products in legacy markets, and improving profitability through scale with free cash flow generation expected by fourth-quarter 2025 as factors supporting its continued favorable view of the risk/reward profile. With a market cap of $500 million and strong analyst consensus (1.71 out of 5, where 1 is Strong Buy), the stock appears undervalued according to InvestingPro’s Fair Value model.
