upgrade
Sell -> Neutral
Reason
BTIG upgraded Avita Medical to Neutral from Sell with no price target following Q3 results and the CEO change that occurred as a result. Shares are down about 71% year-to-date and the firm thinks the company's "wounds are starting to heal or at least cannot get materially much worse," the analyst tells investors. While the firm shares are not quite at a place where it can recommend them, it adds that it is not inclined to recommend selling anymore either.

Reason
TD Cowen lowered the firm's price target on Avita Medical to $5.50 from $8 and keeps a Buy rating on the shares. The firm noted Avita Medical is moving through a leadership transition, but the interim CEO is an industry veteran who will focus on a Board-backed plan centered on execution. The roughly $17M preliminary 3Q revenue result underscores that reimbursement friction was real and lasted longer than hoped, but management believes the policy side is largely fixed exiting 3Q.

Reason
Lake Street analyst Frank Takkinen downgraded Avita Medical to Hold from Buy with a price target of $4, down from $8. Q3 revenue did not rebound as anticipated and Jim Corbett resigned as CEO, with Chairman Cary Vance assuming the role as interim CEO, the analyst says. The firm is downgrading shares given the Q3 shortfall, a likely guidance reset, and OrbiMed debt requiring amendments, the analyst noted.
