Scotiabank Maintains Sector Perform on Gaming and Leisure Props, Lowers Price Target to $49

On Thursday, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/spruce-point-capital">Spruce Point Capital released</a> a detailed report on PROCEPT BioRobotics (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PRCT#NASDAQ">PRCT</a>), raising concerns about the claims surrounding its market potential and growth prospects, suggesting the company&#8217;s stock could face a 30% to 60% downside.
Spruce Point questions the credibility of Procept&#8217;s addressable market estimates, business metrics, and valuation.
Procept BioRobotics specializes in a robotic surgical system for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH or enlarged prostate).
Benzinga has contacted Procept for comment on the Spruce Point report and will update if a response is received.
The company&#8217;s Aquablation therapy, a waterjet procedure designed to minimize sexual side effects compared to other surgeries, has gained traction in high-volume U.S. hospitals, contributing to significant revenue growth—from under $10 million in 2020 to $200 million, according to Spruce Point.
However, Spruce Point argues that Procept's comparison to Intuitive Surgical Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ISRG#NASDAQ">ISRG</a>) is misleading and that the addressable market for Aquablation is significantly overstated.

Spruce Point <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20250116281668/en/Spruce-Point-Capital-Management-Announces-Investment-Opinion-Releases-Report-and-Strong-Sell-Research-Opinion-on-PROCEPT-BioRobotics-NASDAQ-PRCT" rel="noreferrer noopener">writes</a> that Aquablation&#8217;s appeal is limited to a niche segment of patients with large prostates, representing only a small fraction of the BPH market. Most BPH patients suffer from mild to moderate symptoms, often managed with medications or minimally invasive surgical therapies (MISTs).
These outpatient procedures, offering minimal risks and shorter recovery times, have rapidly gained market share since 2014, accounting for 40-45% of BPH surgeries. Spruce Point says MISTs will continue to outpace resective procedures like Aquablation.
Further concerns stem from Procept's rising days sales outstanding (DSOs), which have increased from 47 to 130 days over three years, signaling potential sales and accounting issues.
Spruce Point also found inconsistencies in Procept's reported surgical volumes and equipment utilization rates, raising doubts about the company's metrics.
Procept&#8217;s statements regarding its robotic and AI capabilities have faced scrutiny. Critics, including Spruce Point Capital Management, argue that the system&#8217;s reliance on sales representatives during procedures and the need for surgeon expertise undermines its &#8220;automation&#8221; narrative. The HYDROS system, introduced with promises of AI-driven advancements, has been met with mixed feedback, with some urologists finding its features underwhelming.
Despite Procept&#8217;s $4.7 billion market valuation and premium revenue multiple, Spruce Point argues that its niche product, structural barriers to growth, and questionable metrics make its valuation unsustainable. The firm estimates Procept's fair value at $29 to $54 per share, implying substantial downside risk.
Price Action: PRCT stock is down 1.79% at $76.91 at last check Thursday.

Wingstop's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WING#NYSE">WING</a>) short percent of float has fallen 3.55% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 1.74 million shares sold short, which is 5.98% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 3.59 days to cover their short positions on average.
<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock/">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Wingstop has declined since its last report. This does not mean that the stock is going to rise in the near-term but traders should be aware that less shares are being shorted.
<h3>Comparing Wingstop's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
According to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/">Benzinga Pro</a>, Wingstop's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 9.30%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.

Israel's cabinet will reportedly vote on a ceasefire agreement <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/43011383/israel-gaza-ceasefire-hostage-exchange">with Hamas on Friday.</a>
Since the announcement of the tentative truce on Wednesday, Israeli airstrikes in Gaza have reportedly killed 83 people, according to a spokesperson for Gaza's Civil Defense, marking the highest daily toll in over a week, <a href="https://www.cnn.com/world/live-news/israel-hamas-gaza-ceasefire-hostages-01-16-24/index.html">CNN</a> reports.
What Happened: The ceasefire proposal, brokered after extensive negotiations, aims to halt the ongoing conflict in Gaza and facilitate the release of hostages held by Hamas in exchange for Palestinian prisoners. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has refrained from commenting on specific deal provisions until all elements are finalized, CNN said. 
Tnsions within Netanyahu's coalition government are escalating. A key right-wing faction has threatened to withdraw its support unless the ceasefire's initial phase leads to a resumption of military operations.
According to CNN, international humanitarian agencies have welcomed the deal, urging unfettered access to Gaza to address the extensive humanitarian crisis.

Why It Matters: With the ceasefire on shaky ground, Netanyahu's decision to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/25/01/43029992/netanyahu-postpones-ceasefire-vote-raising-questions-about-gaza-truce-prospects">delay the cabinet vote</a> — citing additional demands by Hamas — raises questions about the agreement's durability. Senior Hamas official Sami Abu Zuhri has denied allegations of reneging on the deal, calling the claims baseless.
The dispute has cast doubt on the potential end to a 15-month conflict.
International mediators remain hopeful, emphasizing the significance of the agreement in alleviating the humanitarian toll in Gaza.

Looking At Enphase Energy's Recent Unusual Options Activity

Oil and gas giant BP Plc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BP#NYSE">BP</a>) is reducing its workforce by 4,700 positions, which accounts for 5% of its employees, and eliminating more than 3,000 contractor jobs.
The oil giant aims to streamline its operations and reduce costs as part of an ongoing initiative to cut <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/05/38665532/why-bp-shares-are-trading-lower-premarket-today">$2 billion by the end of 2026.</a>
CEO Murray Auchincloss communicated these cuts to staff as part of the company&#8217;s ongoing cost-reduction efforts.
Since June 2024, BP suspended or paused 30 projects to concentrate on its most lucrative initiatives, according to a report from <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-01-16/bp-eliminates-thousands-of-jobs-in-cost-cutting-effort-ceo-says?srnd=phx-industries-energy&amp;sref=TBDibEcD">Bloomberg</a>.
BP employs approximately 90,000 people worldwide, and while the cuts will affect several regions, specific details on country-level job losses have not been disclosed, reported <a href="https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/ckgy3ve1q69o">BBC</a>.
The restructuring comes under the leadership of CEO Auchincloss, who <a href="https://www.bp.com/en/global/corporate/news-and-insights/press-releases/murray-auchincloss-appointed-bp-chief-executive-officer.html">took the helm a year ago</a>.
The CEO, in his memo to the employees, stated that the company's pivot toward more digital capabilities, including artificial intelligence in engineering and marketing, would boost its operations.

BP's decision to scale back its oil and gas production reduction targets for 2030 has been controversial, with some of the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/01/36829332/battleground-for-oil-majors-bp-activist-investor-calls-for-cut-in-green-energy-pled">investors supporting the decision</a>.
In 2020, BP set a goal to <a href="https://www.bp.com/en/global/corporate/news-and-insights/press-releases/from-international-oil-company-to-integrated-energy-company-bp-sets-out-strategy-for-decade-of-delivery-towards-net-zero-ambition.html">reduce its oil and gas</a> production by 40% by 2030.&nbsp;The goal was <a href="https://www.bp.com/en/global/corporate/sustainability/getting-to-net-zero/five-aims-to-get-bp-to-net-zero.html">abandoned in October 2024</a>. 
Earlier this week, BP said production in its fiscal fourth quarter is expected to be <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/42971311/bp-warns-of-lower-oil-gas-output-in-fourth-quarter-update">lower than in the third quarter</a>. 
For the fourth quarter, the company anticipates a decline in upstream production compared to the previous quarter, with reductions in both oil and gas &amp; low-carbon energy output.
In the gas and low-carbon energy segment, realizations are expected to improve by $0.1 to $0.2 billion, driven by fluctuations in non-Henry Hub natural gas prices.
In the oil production and operations sector, BP predicts a negative impact on realizations of $0.2 billion to $0.4 billion, primarily due to price lags, especially in the Gulf of Mexico and UAE.
The company&#8217;s operating revenues for the third quarter came in at $47.254 billion, missing the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/10/41598840/bp-stock-drops-as-q3-revenue-misses-mark-production-declines-debt-rises">consensus of $52.557 billion</a>.
Investors can gain exposure to the stock via Texas Capital Texas Oil Index ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/OILT#NYSE">OILT</a>) and Amplify Natural Resources Dividend Income ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NDIV#NYSE">NDIV</a>).

BP Slashes Workforce By 5% To Reach $2 Billion In Savings Goal

Atomera Incorporated (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ATOM#NASDAQ">ATOM</a>) shares are trading lower Thursday potentially continuing a momentum-driven decline as markets react to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/01/43001512/inflation-rises-to-29-in-december-core-slows-yet-rising-energy-costs-put-feds-target-at-risk">mixed inflation data for December</a>.
What To Know: The data showed consumer prices rising 2.9% year-over-year, marking the highest annual rate since July 2024. The Consumer Price Index (CPI) increase, driven largely by a 2.6% rise in the energy index, has renewed concerns over the Federal Reserve&#8217;s ability to achieve its 2% inflation target.
While core inflation, excluding food and energy, rose 3.2% annually—slightly below estimates—monthly core prices climbed 0.2%, in line with expectations.
Market sentiment reflected optimism in equity indices, with S&amp;P 500 futures up 1.5% and Nasdaq 100 contracts gaining 1.6%. However, Atomera shares diverged, likely impacted by broader concerns about rate-sensitive sectors and continued negative sentiment around the stock.
Treasury yields also fell following the inflation report, with the two-year yield dropping 9 basis points to 4.28% while the U.S. dollar weakened. Despite these broader market moves, Atomera's sharp decline may suggest company-specific pressures are compounding its struggles amid macroeconomic uncertainty.
ATOM Price Action: Atomera shares were down 20.2% at $8.91 at the time of writing, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard?new_user=False&amp;backend=google-oauth2">Benzinga Pro.</a>

Unpacking the Latest Options Trading Trends in Symbotic

Super Micro Computer, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SMCI#NASDAQ">SMCI</a>) shares are trading higher Thursday after the prominent short-selling firm Hindenburg Research <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/01/43022221/smci-stock-gains-over-3-in-thursday-pre-market-after-short-seller-who-alleged-accounting-manipulation-shuts-shop-nikola-block-and-carvana-also-in-focus">announced its closure</a>.
What To Know: Hindenburg, known for high-profile short reports, accused Super Micro Computer last year of accounting manipulation, sibling self-dealing, and sanctions evasion, triggering significant scrutiny of the company.
The firm, founded in 2017 by Nathan Anderson, gained attention for investigations targeting major companies, including Nikola Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NKLA#NASDAQ">NKLA</a>), India's Adani Group, and Jack Dorsey's Block Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SQ#NYSE">SQ</a>). Hindenburg's reports often caused steep stock price drops and legal challenges for its targets. For instance, its 2023 exposé on Adani Group led to a $100 billion market value loss, while its 2020 report on Nikola resulted in the resignation of its founder Trevor Milton.
Hindenburg&#8217;s closure, attributed to personal reasons, potentially marks the end of an influential era in short selling. The firm&#8217;s final report accused Carvana Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CVNA#NYSE">CVNA</a>) of accounting irregularities, allegations the company denied. 
Anderson plans to document Hindenburg's investigative methods over the next six months, aiming to inspire future market watchdogs and analysts.
SMCI Price Action: Super Micro Computer shares were up 2.3% at $31.68 at the time of writing, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard?new_user=False&amp;backend=google-oauth2">Benzinga Pro.</a>

Super Micro Computer Shares Are On The Rise: What's Going On?

Keefe, Bruyette &amp; Woods analyst Aidan Hall raised the price forecast on BlackRock, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BLK#NYSE">BLK</a>) to $1,180 from $1,160 <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/blk/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">while maintaining an Outperform rating</a>.
On Wednesday, the investment giant&nbsp;reported fourth-quarter results, with revenue of&nbsp;$5.68 billion, beating the consensus of&nbsp;$5.53 billion and adjusted EPS of $11.93,&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com//node/42997625" rel="noreferrer noopener">surpassing the consensus of&nbsp;$11.21</a>.
The analyst writes that BLK shares responded favorably to the results, surpassing both peers and the broader market by more than 300 basis points.
BlackRock is still in the early phases of its transformation, with management&#8217;s commentary remaining constructive on growth initiatives for 2025, adds the analyst.
Notably, Hall writes that management highlighted ongoing initiatives to meet the growing demand for alternative investments in the retail channel.
These include a managed model partnership with Partners Group, offering a single-subscription document with three risk profiles and a mix of BlackRock and Partners Group funds, adds the analyst.
Also, the analyst writes that management expects core G&amp;A growth in the mid-to-high single digits for 2025, including expenses related to GIP and Preqin.
Hall now anticipates $152.5 million in G&amp;A expenses from GIP and Preqin and expects core G&amp;A to grow 7.9% in 2025, excluding HPS, which the analyst model to close by June 30.
Management also expects continued operating margin expansion, driven by a more variable expense base, with the analyst projecting an estimated 80bps margin improvement to 45.3% in 2025.
Consequently, the analyst slightly adjusted EPS estimates to $10.94 (from $10.92) for first-quarter FY25, $47.23 (from $46.94) for 2025 and $53.62 (from $53.89) for 2026.
The revisions reflect higher operating expenses, primarily from compensation and benefits, as well as amortization of intangibles, partially offset by higher total revenue, says the analyst.
Investors can gain exposure to the stock via&nbsp;Fidelity Disruptive Finance ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FDFF#NASDAQ">FDFF</a>) and Spinnaker ETF Series Genter Capital International Dividend ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GENW#NYSE">GENW</a>).
Price Action: BLK shares are down 2.44% at $988.42 at the last check Thursday.
