In this article:

HALO develops novel oncology treatments targeting tumors and offers a health care technology platform that provides subcutaneous drug delivery. It recently won a patent approval for its Enhanze product, after which the company raised its full-year 2024 revenue guidance range to a top end of just more than $1 billion.

As for earnings, the company showed a 21% increase in first-quarter revenue and a huge jump of 94% in net income. Investors should also like the firm’s plans to buy back up to $750 million in shares.

It’s no wonder HALO shares are up 42% this year – and they could rise more. MAPsignals data shows how Big Money investors are betting heavily on the forward picture of the stock.
