Since then however, the share price dropped 20% due to a disappointing Q3 earnings report and lowered full-year guidance, resulting at least partially from the negative impact of recent hurricanes. The share price further plummeted after the company announced a $225 million acquisition of JOTEC, German-based, privately-held developer of technologically differentiated endovascular stent grafts.
