Here is what Headwaters Capital has to say about Masimo Corporation (NASDAQ:MASI) in its Q2 2021 investor letter:
“I exited the position in Masimo (“MASI”) during the quarter. Masimo is the leader in SET pulse oximeters (a device that is placed on your finger to measure oxygen levels) that are used in medical settings. The sell decision was driven by delayed new product roll-outs and slower uptake of new products that have been introduced. While I believe the core business for MASI will continue to perform well, I’m concerned that revenue growth from new products will be slower to materialize and could pressure the company’s premium valuation.”
