The company has benefited from the AI boom, reporting record-high revenue in early February.

Rosenblatt analysts said the firm has ” increased conviction that royalty trends are richening at a faster clip on the heels of more strategic licensing engagements that are increasingly AI-centric.” The analysts said, “like Nvidia in compute GPUs, Arm’s technology is becoming indispensable and more so as AI moves more and more to the Edge.”

The health tech company has an AI segment, Nanox.AI, through which it offers solutions that “provide the ability to use AI to highlight and help identify patients with asymptomatic undetected chronic disease, initiating earlier diagnosis and preventative management.”

Nanox shares rose 7.6% Friday to $10.78, contributing to its more than 66% rise for 2024 so far.

The company reported a year-over-year decline in revenue its February earnings report, but highlighted progress in its scientific work.
