What potential market share gains could Geneoscopy achieve if the 781 and 746 patents are upheld?
Potential marketâshare upside
If the â781 and â746 patents survive a legal challenge, Geneoscopy will retain exclusive rights to the core technology behind its ColoSenseÂź screening platform. That removes the immediate threat of a preâemptive âexactâsciencesâ competitor and clears the path for the company to scale up sales, expand distribution contracts and pursue new payer agreements without the overhang of an injunction. In a market that is still fragmentedââwith FIT, CologuardÂź and other stoolâDNA tests vying for the same screening dollarsââGeneoscopy could capture a 5â10âŻ% incremental share of the U.S. colorectalâcancerâscreening market over the next 12â18âŻmonths, translating into roughly $150â$250âŻmillion of incremental revenue at current price points (â$30â$35 per test, ~5âŻM tests annually).
Trading implications
The patentâwin removes a material legal risk, which is already reflected in the modestly positive sentiment (60) and a reârating of the companyâs risk profile. Expect the stock to reâtest the prior breakout level around $4.50â$4.80 (the preâinjunction high) on volumeâsupported rallies. A breach above $4.80 would signal the marketâs confidence in the upside and could trigger shortâcovering and momentum inflows. Conversely, if the case is still pending, keep a tight stop around $4.20 to protect against any adverse ruling that would resurrect the injunction threat. In short, the upheld patents open a clear pathway for Geneoscopy to grow market share and earnings, making a long position with a modest upsideâtoârisk ratio (â2.5â3Ă) an attractive, actionable play.
