Activist Altai Capital Management urged OraSure Technologies to explore a sale, asserting the medical device maker could fetch roughly 2x its current share price (≈100% upside) in a letter seen by Reuters. The call for a strategic review could trigger M&A processes or a catalyst-driven rerating of the stock if the company engages, likely moving the equity by several percent on execution or credible buyer interest.
