MYGN analyst price targets
MYGN analyst data as of October 2026, sourced from Yahoo Finance and may be delayed. A price target is what an analyst published on a date, not a forecast Walnut endorses, and targets are typically set on a 12-month view. Verify current figures before deciding.
The average target of $4.11 sits below the $5.73 price, -28.3%. The median is $3.85, and where the two differ the median is the steadier read, because one unusually high or low target cannot drag it.
What the MYGN target range actually tells you
The published targets span $2.00 to $8.00. That gap is 146% of the average target, which counts as wide disagreement. A spread that wide is the most informative number on this page: analysts who all follow the company closely cannot agree within a factor that large, which means the outcome genuinely depends on assumptions nobody can settle yet.
The useful move is to read the high target as one bull scenario and the low target as one bear scenario, then ask which set of assumptions you find more plausible. Both cases are worked through on the MYGN is it a buy page.

The most recent published rating actions on MYGN within the last six months, from Yahoo Finance. Each row is dated because a target only means something alongside the date it was set. Walnut is not an investment adviser and does not endorse any of these views.
In the last six months there have been 2 raises and 7 cuts among these actions. The direction of revisions is often more telling than the level, because it shows which way informed opinion is moving.
How analysts rate MYGN
Of the analysts with a published rating, 1 say buy, 5 say hold, and 3 say sell, so 11% carry a buy. That buy share has fallen over the last three months, so sentiment is drifting more negative.
Read the distribution rather than the label. Sell ratings are rare across the entire market for structural reasons, so a stock with no sell ratings is unremarkable, while even a handful of them is worth understanding.
Why a MYGN price target is not a prediction
- It is a 12-month model output. An analyst picks assumptions for revenue, margin, and a multiple, and the target falls out of the arithmetic. Change one assumption and the target moves a lot.
- The distribution is skewed. Sell-side coverage carries far more buy ratings than sell ratings across the whole market, so the average is not a balanced vote.
- Targets follow price as often as they lead it. Revisions frequently arrive after a move, not before, which is why a rising target is weak evidence on its own.
- Nobody is scored on it. There is no cost to a target that never gets close, so treat accuracy as unverified unless you check the firm's record yourself.

Consensus estimates for MYGN published by sell-side analysts, as of October 2026, from Yahoo Finance. Each figure is the average of the analysts counted, with the lowest and highest estimate beneath it; growth compares with the same period a year earlier and is left blank where either figure is a loss. Estimates change constantly. Walnut is not an investment adviser.
Estimates are the most widely published forecast there is: many more analysts model a company's earnings than publish a price target on it. They are also revised constantly, and the direction of those revisions into a report is often more informative than the level. Myriad Genetics next reports on November 4, 2026, which is when these figures get tested against actual results.
Is there a 2030 forecast for MYGN?
Not a published one. Analyst price targets run to about twelve months, occasionally two years, and the firms covering MYGN do not put out a 2030 number. Anything presenting one is extrapolating a growth rate rather than reporting research, and a figure produced that way tells you about the assumption chosen, not about the company.
What can be said over a long horizon is what the current price already assumes about the business, which is a question the filings answer and a forecast cannot.
That is the more useful frame for a ten-year question. A share price is the market’s estimate of future cash flows discounted to today, so the multiple is already a statement about growth. The long-horizon question is whether Myriad Genetics can deliver what is priced in, and what would have to change for that to break. Both are answerable from the drivers and risks below. A number for 2030 is not.
What could move MYGN from here
In short: the drivers cited most often are The Labcorp prenatal sale, Hereditary cancer volume versus price, Prostate cancer and the AI push. The risk cited most often against it is reimbursement is the central risk.
Both sides are worked through properly, with the high and low targets used as the bull and bear anchors, on the MYGN is it a buy page. This page deliberately stops at the numbers.

FAQ
What is the price target for Myriad Genetics (MYGN)?
+
The average analyst price target for MYGN is $4.11 as of October 2026, across 8 analysts. That is -28.3% against the $5.73 price at the time of the data pull, so the consensus sits below where the stock trades. The median target, which is less distorted by one extreme view, is $3.85. Targets move constantly; verify the current figure before relying on it.
How high could MYGN go?
+
The highest published target is $8.00, which is +39.6% against the $5.73 price. That is one analyst's most optimistic case, not a ceiling and not a forecast. The lowest is $2.00. The gap between them is the honest answer to this question: analysts who all follow Myriad Genetics closely disagree by 146% of the average target, so treat any single number as one scenario.
How many analysts cover MYGN?
+
8 analysts publish estimates on MYGN as of October 2026. Of those with a published rating, 1 say buy, 5 hold, and 3 sell, so 11% carry a buy rating. More coverage usually means the consensus is better informed, though it also means the obvious points are already in the price.
Are analyst price targets for MYGN accurate?
+
Treat them as informed opinion, not measurement. Two things are worth knowing. Sell-side ratings skew positive across the market, and MYGN is no exception at 11% buy ratings, so the distribution is not a balanced vote. And targets tend to follow the share price at least as often as they lead it, getting raised after a stock has already run. They are most useful as a read on what the informed consensus expects, and least useful as a prediction of where the price lands.
Has the MYGN price target been raised or cut recently?
+
In the last six months there have been 2 raises and 7 cuts among the published actions on MYGN. The most recent was TD Cowen, which raised its target to $4.50 from $4.00 on October 13, 2026. The direction of revisions often tells you more than the level, because it shows which way the informed view is moving.
Is analyst sentiment on MYGN improving?
+
Over the last three months the share of analysts rating MYGN a buy has been falling. That is a shift in opinion, not in the business, and it often lags the news that caused it. It is worth watching alongside the target revisions rather than on its own.
What are analysts' earnings estimates for Myriad Genetics (MYGN)?
+
For the fiscal year ending Dec 2026, the 9 analysts publishing estimates on MYGN expect earnings of -$0.74 per share and revenue of $777.9 million (-5.7%). For the fiscal year ending Dec 2027, the consensus is -$0.59 per share. These are consensus estimates as of October 2026, the average of what the covering analysts publish, and they are revised constantly, especially around each earnings report. They describe expectations, not results.
When does MYGN report earnings next?
+
Myriad Genetics's next earnings report is scheduled for November 4, 2026. The report is when the estimates on this page get tested against actual results, which is why targets and estimates tend to move most in the days after it.
What is the MYGN stock price prediction for 2030?
+
There is no published one. Analyst targets run to about twelve months and no firm covering MYGN publishes a 2030 figure, so any site showing one has extrapolated a growth rate rather than reported research. The answerable version of the question is what the current price already assumes about Myriad Genetics's earnings, which the forward multiple on this page sets out, and what would have to change for that to break.
Will MYGN go up in 2026?
+
Nobody knows, including the analysts publishing targets. What the numbers on this page tell you is where informed opinion currently sits and how much it disagrees with itself, which is genuinely useful and completely different from a prediction. The risk most often cited against Myriad Genetics: Reimbursement is the central risk. Walnut is not an investment adviser.
Walnut is informational, not investment advice, and does not publish price targets of its own. The analyst figures on this page come from a October 2026 data pull of published third-party research, are approximate, and change constantly. Verify current figures with your broker before acting on them.
