Concurrently, HeartFlow Inc. disclosed a modestly narrower-than-anticipated loss for the second quarter of 2026. Adjusted earnings per share stood at negative $0.07, surpassing Wall Street's forecast of negative $0.19 per share. The quarter's revenue amounted to $64.1 million, representing a 48% rise from the prior year and exceeding both Stifel's forecast of $56.7 million and the consensus estimate of $56.6 million.

This robust performance was credited to heightened demand for Heartflow's diagnostic tools for coronary artery disease and progress in its plaque and FFRCT divisions. Subsequently, Stifel upgraded its price target for HeartFlow shares to $45 from $40, maintaining a Buy rating. These developments underscore HeartFlow's capability to surpass market forecasts and spur growth in its principal business segments.
