Medpace Holdings, Inc. (MEDP): Undervalued CRO or Funding-Dependent Risk?

On this episode of Stock Spotlight, Michael analyzes Medpace Holdings (MEDP), a unique player in the contract research organization (CRO) space. Unlike industry giants focused on big pharma, Medpace specializes in small to mid-sized biotech firms - a double-edged sword that grants pricing power, but also exposes it to biotech funding volatility.

With a potential return to double-digit growth in 2026, Medpace meets the criteria for a Quality Growth company, but its narrow moat, lack of true market leadership and poor Glassdoor ratings raise red flags. From a valuation standpoint, Medpace appears modestly undervalued, yet technical indicators signal caution.

Is Medpace a hidden gem in the healthcare sector or a high-risk bet reliant on biotech funding stability? Tune in as Michael unpacks his strategy for this niche CRO.
