AxoGen Still In The Doghouse, But The Opportunity Is Compelling

The going hasn’t gotten any easier for AxoGen (AXGN). This up-and-coming med-tech company specializing in nerve repair has spooked growth investors with regard to its revenue growth rate and investors have also grown more concerned over the possibility of more intense competition from companies like Integra (IART) and Baxter (BAX) in the nerve repair market. While all that’s been going on, there seems to have been a general shift away from higher-growth (and higher-risk) stories in the med-tech space.

I’m still bullish on AxoGen, as I believe it addresses a large and under-served market with better products, but sentiment won’t turn around overnight. The 30%-plus long-term revenue growth I expect from AxoGen is hardly conservative, but I do believe these shares can outperform as surgeons become more familiar and comfortable with the procedure/products and increase their orders in the coming years.
