Progyny (PGNY) is back in focus after second quarter results topped revenue and non GAAP profit expectations, even as slightly lower full year guidance and a completed share buyback prompted a more cautious market reaction.

Recent trading shows that momentum in Progyny’s share price has cooled, with a 30 day share price return down 17.7% and a 7 day share price return down 5.6%, even though the 1 year total shareholder return is 10.5% and the 3 and 5 year total shareholder returns remain negative. The latest earnings beat, slightly lower full year guidance and completion of the share buyback help explain why the share price, now at US$26.28, reflects both interest in Progyny’s growth opportunities and a more cautious view on future risks.
