LeMaitre Vascular is rated a "Strong Buy" due to its robust M&A-driven business model, high margins, and recent valuation compression. LMAT's strategic shift to larger, higher-multiple acquisitions has improved its success rate to 80% and driven margin expansion, with gross margin rising from 65% to 72%. The company's healthy balance sheet, $376M in cash/short-term investments, and experienced management underpin its ability to pursue disciplined, accretive deals.
LeMaitre Vascular remains a Buy after a 31% pullback, though I have trimmed my price target to $95-$100 for year-end 2027. The Q2 2026 miss was tied to currency, export blockages, and tissue shortages. Not underlying demand. Organic sales grew 10%, and margins hit record highs. Artegraft, now 21% of sales, is LMAT's largest and fastest-growing product. It is the main factor behind margin expansion and international growth prospects.
