“The opportunity to do share buybacks reflects our confidence in the business, cash position, long-term growth opportunities, and our conviction in the durable value of our shares,” said Reg Seeto, CEO and President of CareDx. “We remain 100 percent focused on driving the next wave of transplant innovation and will continue to invest in research and strategic acquisitions that advance our goals and deliver long-term shareholder value.”
