Insulet (PODD) Could Be 27% Undervalued On Its Debt Refinancing Reset

Insulet (PODD) has just reworked its lending arrangements, replacing US$475m of term loans with new debt at lower interest margins and expanding its undrawn revolving credit facility to US$750m.

The recent 1 month and 3 month share price weakness points to fading momentum even as management works to cut financing costs and responds to events like the recent FTSE All World index removal and upcoming Bernstein healthcare forum appearance.
