ClearBridge Aggressive Growth Strategy stated the following regarding Doximity, Inc. (NYSE:DOCS) in its fourth quarter 2023 investor letter:
"Health care disruptors Insulet and Doximity, Inc. (NYSE:DOCS), which derated earlier in the year due to negative implications of positive GLP-1 trials on medical device utilization and lower advertisement spending by biopharmaceutical companies, respectively, saw solid rebounds. Insulet, a maker of insulin pumps for diabetes patients, was caught up in the debate over the long-reaching consequences of GLP-1 therapeutics significantly curbing appetites and driving a more fit populace, with speculation around growth rates for a variety of businesses ranging from medical devices to restaurants to food distributors & manufacturers. The November release of further data from the SELECT study painted a more balanced picture on the impact to the rest of the health care sector, removing some pressure on the most impacted areas. Additionally, the stock was propelled by strong near-term fundamentals, with better than expected results in its most recent quarter due to continued momentum from its Omnipod 5 product cycle."
