Why Avantor (AVTR) Stock Is Trading Up Today
Shares of life sciences company Avantor (NYSE:AVTR) jumped 4.2% in the afternoon session after a company director, Sanjeev K Mehra, disclosed the purchase of 350,000 shares for a total of $3.8 million. This significant insider buy, executed at prices between $10.98 and $11.21, signaled strong confidence from leadership, especially as the stock traded near its 52-week low. The purchase followed a period of negative sentiment for the company. Avantor had previously released disappointing third-quarter financial results, which included a 4.7% decline in organic revenue and a net loss of $712 million, largely due to a non-cash goodwill impairment charge. These results, which were attributed to competitive pressures, led to analyst downgrades from firms including Raymond James and JPMorgan.
