H.C. Wainwright's valuation of Microbot Medical (NASDAQ:MBOT) stands at an estimated market value of $255 million, or $9 per share, which underpins the revised price target. The current market capitalization of $32.34 million suggests significant growth potential if the company achieves its milestones. The analyst's statement concluded with a reiteration of the Buy rating and the updated 12-month price target, reflecting the potential market impact and advantages of the LIBERTY system. The firm's analyst highlighted the recent submission of a 510(k) premarket notification to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for LIBERTY, which is touted as the world's first single-use, fully-disposable robotic system designed for endovascular procedures.

The submission, made in December 2024, is based on the successful results from a multi-center, single-arm trial that assessed LIBERTY's performance and safety in human subjects undergoing peripheral vascular interventions. Microbot Medical's management anticipates FDA marketing clearance for LIBERTY in the second quarter of 2025. With a strong current ratio of 3.64 and more cash than debt on its balance sheet, the company appears well-positioned to support its regulatory initiatives.

The system's unique selling points include its portability and disposability, which could provide it with a competitive edge over larger, more costly capital equipment. Additionally, LIBERTY is expected to reduce radiation exposure and physical strain for healthcare professionals.
