Sight Sciences stock rating upgraded by Lake Street on stabilizing business

Investing.com - Lake Street Capital Markets upgraded Sight Sciences Inc. (NASDAQ:SGHT) from Hold to Buy with a price target of $5.00 on Friday. The stock has shown strong momentum, gaining over 8.5% in the past week and trading at $4.13, according to InvestingPro data.

The upgrade follows Sight Sciences’ second-quarter 2025 financial results, which exceeded expectations for both revenue and earnings per share, leading the company to raise its 2025 revenue guidance. InvestingPro analysis reveals the company maintains a strong financial position with a current ratio of 10.47, indicating robust liquidity, and holds more cash than debt on its balance sheet.

Lake Street cited several factors supporting the upgrade, including stabilization in the company’s Surgical glaucoma business, prudently set guidance, improved gross margins, and potential catalysts from Dry eye contract wins.

The investment firm noted that Sight Sciences shares currently offer "an attractive risk/reward" ratio, trading at approximately 1.7 times the expected 2025 enterprise value to sales.

Sight Sciences specializes in medical devices for ophthalmology, with products targeting glaucoma and dry eye disease treatment.
