In the Q3 2020 Investor Letter, Baron Health Care Fund highlighted a few stocks and CryoPort Inc. (NASDAQ:CYRX) is one of them. CryoPort Inc. (NASDAQ:CYRX) provides cryogenic logistics solutions to the life sciences industry. Year-to-date, CryoPort Inc. (NASDAQ:CYRX) stock gained 186.6% and on December 9th it had a closing price of $47.18. Here is what Baron Health Care Fund said:
“CryoPort, Inc. provides cryogenic shipping to preserve high value samples like cell and gene therapies. Shares increased following the announcement of two attractive acquisitions in August. In our view, the MVE Biological Solutions acquisition from Chart is a good vertical integration play, while the CRYOPDP acquisition expands CryoPort’s geographic reach and offers transport across more temperature bands. We see significant upside just from the current pipeline of trials already being supported with a continued inflection in growth as more products flow through this pipeline into commercial shipments.”
