This logistics operator, which provides service to other celllular therapy innovators, is being well-served by its growth-by-acquisition approach. The recent deal with Takeda also bodes well. Shares of CYRX  have gained 17.3% over the past month.

This company is expected to post quarterly loss of $0.13 per share in its upcoming report, which represents a year-over-year change of +27.8%. Revenues are expected to be $70.22 million, up 23.9% from the year-ago quarter.

While earnings and revenue growth expectations are important in evaluating the potential strength in a stock, empirical research shows a strong correlation between trends in earnings estimate revisions and near-term stock price movements.

For CryoPort, Inc., the consensus EPS estimate for the quarter has remained unchanged over the last 30 days. And a stock's price usually doesn't keep moving higher in the absence of any trend in earnings estimate revisions.
