Why Is Insulet Stock Up More Than 15% Over The Last Month?


Insulet (NASDAQ:PODD), a company best known for selling the Omnipod continuous insulin delivery system that caters to people with diabetes, has seen its stock price rally by close to 17% over the last month. There have been multiple factors driving the rally. Firstly, the company posted stronger than expected Q3 results earlier this month, with revenues growing by ~27% year-over-year to $192 million, beating estimates by almost $13 million, driven by strong sales of the Omnipod system. The company has had some favorable news on the regulatory front, gaining FDA approval for the use of Novo Nordisk’s Fiasp -a fast-acting mealtime insulin – with the Omnipod insulin management platform. Separately, in September, the FDA cleared the company’s ACE pump. This could help the company drive revenue growth.
