Why It Matters
Which of these 2 stories sounds closer for this stock?
1. Generates cash flow
The stock generated 4% or more of the share price (called cash flow yield), and shows moderate 10-15% or more growth.
2. Riding a trend
Think Tesla during the pandemic of 2020 when EVs were riding a cultural high, or Nvidia in the current AI boom, or even Figma. These companies don’t have enough yield, or, enough growth, or both - however - they are riding a trend. They have momentum. These can be more volatile - they don’t have the floor of strong cash flow

Why The Stock Moved
Qualitative Assessment
AI Generated Analysis | Feedback
Here are five key points highlighting why Harrow's (HROW) stock moved by 14.2% from approximately August 31, 2025, to December 4, 2025:
1. Strong Third Quarter 2025 Earnings Beat. Harrow reported its third-quarter 2025 financial results on November 10, 2025, announcing an earnings per share (EPS) of $0.33, significantly surpassing the consensus estimate of $0.22 by 37.5%. The company also reported a 45% year-over-year increase in revenue, reaching $71.6 million. This strong EPS performance, despite a slight revenue miss, led to an initial surge in the stock price.
2. Vevye's Major Formulary Win with CVS. On December 1, 2025, Harrow's dry eye therapy, Vevye, replaced Xiidra on the Tier 1 formulary at CVS, which is the largest Pharmacy Benefits Manager in the U.S. This critical win provides Vevye with first-line access, significantly broadening its adoption and is expected to drive a higher Average Selling Price (ASP) for Harrow while reducing patient co-pays, thereby expanding market share.
