Lantheus Holdings Inc (LNTH) is not a strong buy for a beginner, long-term investor at this time. While the stock has bullish technical indicators and positive analyst ratings, the significant insider and hedge fund selling, coupled with weak financial performance in the latest quarter, outweigh the potential short-term gains. The investor should wait for clearer signs of financial recovery or stronger long-term catalysts.
The stock shows bullish technical indicators with a positively expanding MACD histogram, bullish moving averages (SMA_5 > SMA_20 > SMA_200), and a pre-market price of $69 above the key pivot level of $66.213. However, RSI is neutral at 76.967, and the stock is nearing resistance levels (R1: 68.272, R2: 69.544).
The stock has a 60% chance of gaining 5.66% in the next month based on historical patterns. The upcoming earnings report on February 25, 2026, could act as a catalyst if results exceed expectations.
Hedge funds and insiders are aggressively selling, with hedge fund selling up 2127.26% and insider selling up 5211.12%. Financial performance in Q3 2025 was weak, with net income down 78.82% YoY, EPS down 77.09% YoY, and gross margin dropping by 9.42%. No recent news or congress trading data to support a positive sentiment.
In Q3 2025, revenue increased by 1.39% YoY to $384.01M, but net income dropped significantly by 78.82% YoY to $27.77M. EPS declined by 77.09% YoY to $0.41, and gross margin fell to 57.91%, down 9.42% YoY. These metrics indicate a challenging financial environment for the company.
Analysts are generally positive on LNTH, with recent upgrades and price target increases. TD Cowen lowered its price target to $75 from $80 but maintained a Buy rating. Truist and Mizuho have raised price targets to $82 and $72, respectively, citing long-term growth prospects and sector valuation.
