GRAIL Inc's promising outlook is affirmed by a Buy rating and a $43 price target by Kyle Mikson CFA from Canaccord Genuity. Despite Q2 revenue falling short, GRAIL demonstrated 21% YoY growth in Galleri test revenue and improved cost efficiency. Strategic pricing adjustments led to increased test reorders, and the company plans to present significant data from its PATHFINDER 2 study. GRAIL's reduced cash burn projections and reaffirmed revenue growth guidance for 2025 make it an attractive investment opportunity.

GRAIL Inc. (Nasdaq: GRAL), a healthcare company focused on early cancer detection, reported its financial results for the second quarter of 2025. The company saw mixed performance with total revenue growing by 11% year-over-year (YoY) to $35.5 million, driven by a 22% YoY increase in Galleri revenue to $34.4 million. U.S. Galleri revenue specifically grew by 21% YoY to $34.2 million, with over 45,000 Galleri tests sold in the quarter. Despite these gains, the company reported a net loss of $114.0 million, including $28.0 million in impairment of Illumina acquisition-related intangible assets [1].

GRAIL's Chief Executive Officer, Bob Ragusa, expressed satisfaction with the growing uptake of Galleri tests in the U.S., attributing it to increased provider and patient awareness of the multi-cancer early detection (MCED) opportunity. The company plans to submit detailed results from its PATHFINDER 2 study at the European Society for Medical Oncology Congress 2025 in October [1].
