TELA Bio, Inc. (TELA) Stock Jumps 6.6%: Will It Continue to Soar?

TELA Bio, Inc. TELA shares soared 6.6% in the last trading session to close at $6.50. The move was backed by solid volume with far more shares changing hands than in a normal session. This compares to the stock's 9.1% loss over the past four weeks.

Shares surged as investors are most likely optimistic about the prospects of this commercial-stage medical technology company. Increased demand for OviTex and OviTex PRS Reinforced Tissue Matrix products fuelled growth in the first quarter and the momentum should continue.

This company is expected to post quarterly loss of $0.60 per share in its upcoming report, which represents a year-over-year change of -5.3%. Revenues are expected to be $10.25 million, up 35.6% from the year-ago quarter.
