This stock, which remained volatile and traded within the range of $41.45 –$44.45 in the past one-month time frame, witnessed a sharp increase yesterday.

The move came after the company reported solid revenue growth in its second-quarter 2017 results.

The company has seen no estimate revisions over the past one month, and the Zacks Consensus Estimate for the current quarter has also remained unchanged. The recent price action is encouraging though, so make sure to keep a close watch on this firm in the near future.
