<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

<ul>
<li>GAAP revenue growth guidance range of (0.4)% to 0.7%</li>

"In the fourth quarter, we delivered strong double-digit adjusted earnings per share growth" said Liam Kelly, Teleflex's Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer. "The benefits of our diversified portfolio were evident as strong performances from Interventional and Surgical helped offset softness in Interventional Urology revenues. Palette Life Sciences revenues exceeded $75 million in 2025, which was above the $73-$75 million guidance. As announced in a separate press release today, we also took an important step forward in our durable growth strategy with the agreement to acquire substantially all of BIOTRONIK's Vascular Intervention business. This acquisition provides us with a diversified suite of products of coronary and peripheral interventions devices, which complements the Teleflex Interventional business. Also announced today in a separate press release is our intention to separate Teleflex into two publicly traded companies, RemainCo and NewCo. The separation is expected to simplify the operating model, streamline the manufacturing footprint, and increase management focus of each company."
