Description: GH Guardant Health January 08, 2026
Guardant Health, Inc. (NASDAQ:GH) is a precision-oncology firm that commercializes a suite of liquid-biopsy and tissue-based genomic tests-including Guardant360, Guardant360 CDx, GuardantINFINITY, and GuardantConnect-to identify actionable mutations and support clinical trial enrollment for cancer patients worldwide.
Key recent metrics: FY 2023 revenue reached approximately $1.1 billion, up ~30 % YoY, driven largely by Guardant360 CDx adoption; the company reported a cash runway of roughly 18 months after a $300 million financing round in Q3 2024; and its partnership with Roche to co-develop companion diagnostics for KRAS-mutated colorectal cancer is expected to expand market penetration.
Sector dynamics that materially affect Guardant: the global liquid-biopsy market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 23 % through 2030, buoyed by increasing payer reimbursement for non-invasive testing and a shift toward earlier-stage cancer detection; meanwhile, regulatory trends-such as the FDA’s recent guidance on next-generation sequencing companion diagnostics-create both compliance costs and entry barriers that favor incumbents with cleared assays.
For a deeper, data-driven assessment of Guardant’s valuation relative to these trends, you may find the ValueRay analysis worth a quick look.
