The 50-day moving average is $3.36, and the 200-day moving average is $9.15. Analyst estimates for revenues are seen at about $21 million in 2011, and are expected to surge to about $37 million in 2012. That type of growth is hard to find, so this stock could be a good rebound candidate after having a tough 2011. The company recently expanded its lab in order to increase capacity. Oppenheimerrecently downgraded this stock to "perform" from "outperform," and that put pressure on the stock. Still, the stock is rated as perform and it looks very cheap and oversold, since it is trading around book value.
