Boston Scientific (BSX) is considering a takeover of Shockwave Medical (SWAV), according to a report in late April that sent SWAV stock soaring. More at Investors Business Daily

Shockwave uses electrical impulses to “crack” hardened calcium in the arteries. The process, called intravascular lithotripsy, is gaining steam as an alternative to the traditional approach known as atherectomy. Atherectomy uses a small drill to remove the calcifications.

The potential deal — first reported by Bloomberg — could bolster Boston Scientific’s cardiovascular portfolio, Needham analyst Mike Matson said in a note to clients. The total available market for intravascular lithotripsy is worth about $8.5 billion. That implies the market was just 6% penetrated last year.

“We think that Shockwave would be highly complementary to Boston Scientific’s cardiovascular business, would likely generate both cost and revenue synergies and would add almost a point to Boston Scientific’s organic growth,” Matson said.
