Axogen shares are trading higher after the company reported better-than-expected Q4 financial results.

UnitedHealth Group Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UNH#NYSE">UNH</a>) shares are on watch Tuesday after the <a href="https://www.wsj.com/health/healthcare/sen-grassley-launches-inquiry-into-unitedhealth-groups-medicare-billing-practices-ad63a53c">Wall Street Journal </a>reported that Senator Chuck Grassley launched an inquiry into the company's Medicare billing practices.
What To Know: Grassley, chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee sent a letter to CEO Andrew Witty demanding details on how UnitedHealth adds diagnoses to Medicare patients&#8217; records. The letter cites Wall Street Journal reports that found UnitedHealth received billions in payments for conditions doctors hadn't treated. Medicare Advantage insurers get paid more when patients are diagnosed with certain illnesses.
Grassley is asking for training manuals, audit results, compliance program details and software lists related to practices like in-home visits and chart reviews. The inquiry follows a Wall Street Journal report that the Justice Department is also investigating UnitedHealth's billing. 
UnitedHealth denies wrongdoing and calls fraud allegations "outrageous and false." It says its Medicare Advantage plans lower costs and improve health outcomes.
Republicans in Congress are looking for ways to cut federal spending. Some lawmakers are targeting Medicare Advantage billing. Representative Greg Murphy, a North Carolina Republican and urologist, called UnitedHealth's practices "immoral" and said some payment arrangements should be outlawed.
Dr. Mehmet Oz, Trump's nominee to lead the Medicare agency, supports Medicare Advantage but has privately raised concerns about overpayments. Investors had expected a more favorable regulatory environment under Republicans but scrutiny of Medicare Advantage is increasing. The Congressional Budget Office estimates that stopping payments for diagnoses found only in home visits would save $124 billion over ten years.
The House Ways and Means Committee is also investigating Medicare Advantage billing. Representative David Schweikert, an Arizona Republican, is leading a review of how the system pays insurers. He says the goal is to make insurers profit by improving patient health, not by adding diagnoses but admits changing the system will be politically difficult.
UNH Price Action: UnitedHealth Group shares were roughly flat at $462.14 at time of writing, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard?new_user=False&amp;backend=google-oauth2">Benzinga pro.</a>

The Trade Desk, On X, Posts "We're excited to be named a programmatic partner of @Netflix as it expands its ad offering across EMEA."

D.A. Davidson &amp; Co.&nbsp;analyst Alexander Platt&nbsp;initiated coverage on Nebius Group N.V. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NBIS#NASDAQ">NBIS</a>) with a Buy rating <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/NBIS/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">and a price forecast of $50.</a>
The analyst highlights that the company is positioning itself as a key alternative to hyperscalers like AWS, Azure, and GCP, which are leveraging rigid pricing and supply constraints to secure high margins.
While AWS and Azure offer dedicated AI instances, they are burdened by unnecessary software layers and additional costs.
This has led AI startups and enterprises to seek alternatives like Nebius, which is designed specifically for AI workloads.
Nebius capitalizes on this by offering dedicated AI computing services with transparent pricing and scalable infrastructure tailored for AI workloads.

Unlike hyperscalers, Nebius has a structural advantage for handling next-generation AI needs. It has a vertically integrated model and owns data centers.
The analyst writes that while AI compute demand will stabilize, Nebius is uniquely positioned to handle long-term AI workloads.
As AI adoption grows, companies will need scalable, cost-effective compute, which hyperscalers often fail to provide without high premiums.
Unlike general cloud providers, Nebius is purpose-built for continuous AI infrastructure growth, Platt&nbsp;writes.
This apart, Nebius combines compute power with networking, workload scheduling, and AI-optimized services, making it a more scalable and efficient option for AI-focused businesses.
Price Action: Nebius shares are trading lower by 5.8% to $34.14 at last check Tuesday.

Nebius Challenges Hyperscalers With Dedicated AI Computing Services, Transparent Pricing: Analyst

JPMorgan analyst Mark R. Murphy maintained a Neutral rating on Zoom Communications Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ZM#NASDAQ">ZM</a>) with a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/ZM/analyst-ratings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">price target of $80</a>.
Zoom reported <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/02/43927169/zoom-communications-q4-earnings-eps-beat-revenue-in-line-as-company-continues-transformation-into-ai-first-company" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">fourth-quarter revenue</a> of $1.18 billion, up 3.3%, which is in-line with analyst estimates. The communications company reported fourth-quarter adjusted earnings of $1.41 per share, beating analyst estimates of $1.30 per share.
Also Read: <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43945751/huawei-boosts-ai-chip-production-despite-taiwan-semi-and-asml-ban-aims-to-challenge-nvidia-in-china" rel="noreferrer noopener">Huawei Boosts AI Chip Production Despite Taiwan Semi And ASML Ban, Aims to Challenge Nvidia In China</a>
Zoom expects first-quarter revenue of $1.162&nbsp;billion-$1.167 billion. The company sees first-quarter adjusted earnings of $1.29-$1.31 per share.
Coming into Zoom's fourth-quarter earnings, Murphy called out, as he had consistently throughout this earnings season, headwinds likely to arise from FX and the leap year dynamics, which were factors in Zoom's results.
The analyst said Zoom could see a similar upside to fourth-quarter total revenue guidance as it did in the second and third quarters and potentially continue modest growth acceleration from the third to the fourth quarter, which did not play out. The analyst also noted the fiscal 2026 Street consensus growth hurdle was achievable on a constant currency basis.
While there are puts and takes around leap year impacts, Zoom's first-blush fiscal 2026 revenue constant currency growth guidance comes in a tick below Street consensus or just about meets it under the most generous adjustments.
As a reminder, Zoom stated during its first-quarter earnings call approximately nine months ago that the second quarter would be " the low point for fiscal 2025 from a year-over-year growth perspective, and then seeing reacceleration in the back half from there."
While Zoom technically accelerated growth from 2.7% in the first half to 3.4% in the second half, Murphy said investors were hoping for consistent growth acceleration from quarter to quarter and conceivably fiscal 2026 revenue growth guidance that implies acceleration.
The company has been discussing product initiatives to drive growth for some time.
For reference, constant currency growth was 3.5% in the first quarter, 2.4% in the second quarter, 3.6% in the third quarter and 3.6% in the fourth quarter.
Zoom is now guiding fiscal 2026 total revenue growth to 3.1% constant currency and, while not necessarily raising new concerns, continues to call out a mixed aspect to the macro environment.
Zoom continues to trade at a relatively low free cash flow multiple, though admittedly heavily boosted by SBC. However, Murphy said a rerating catalyst is in and would most likely be revenue growth acceleration toward the mid-high single digits or beyond.
The analyst reiterated his positive view of Zoom's innovation track record and meaningful momentum in proliferating AI through its install base and remained constructive overall. However, the lack of a clear growth catalyst beyond a few gradually developing points that can be sketched out kept the analyst on the sidelines.
Murphy projected first-quarter revenue of $1.14 billion and adjusted EPS of $1.35.
The price target is based on ~10 times EV/calendar 2026E unlevered free cash flow (uFCF). The multiple is at a discount to Zoom Video's primary comp set of Software Vendors with mid-high single-digit calendar 2026E growth and uFCF margin of ~20% or more, which trade at ~20 times EV/calendar 2025E uFCF on average. Murphy noted a discount is warranted given Zoom's inferior FTM growth profile, FTM GAAP operating margin and competitive dynamics within the communications software market.
ZM Price Action: Zoom stock is down 9.08% at $73.74 at publication Tuesday.

On Tuesday, ContextLogic Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LOGC#NASDAQ">LOGC</a>) and BC Partners unveiled a <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/02/g43937765/contextlogic-announces-up-to-150-million-strategic-investment-by-bc-partners" rel="noreferrer noopener">strategic investment</a>. A BC Partners-advised fund will acquire up to $150 million in convertible preferred units from ContextLogic Holdings, LLC, a newly formed, wholly owned Delaware-based subsidiary of ContextLogic.
BC Partners, a global investment firm managing approximately 40 billion euros in assets, is leading the investment through its credit arm. ombined with existing cash, this will provide ContextLogic access to up to $300 million and $2.7 billion in net operating losses.
Together, they will explore strategic opportunities to maximize shareholder value while supporting management&#8217;s ongoing efforts to streamline operations and drive business growth through acquisitions or expansion.
The Preferred Units will carry a 4.00% dividend, increasing to 8.00% post-acquisition, and convert to common units at a 1:1 ratio. A BC Partners-advised fund will invest $75 million at closing, with Holdings retaining the option to issue an additional $75 million for acquisitions.
ContextLogic will own 58.4% of Holdings&#8217; common units upon full investment, while BC Partners&#8217; fund will hold 41.6% on a fully diluted basis.
&#8220;We strongly believe this new investment will provide us with the capital and flexibility needed to complete an attractive acquisition that could serve as a platform for future acquisitions and enable ContextLogic to fully utilize its considerable assets,&#8221; said Rishi Bajaj, Chief Executive Officer of ContextLogic.
As part of the transaction, Ted Goldthorpe and Mark Ward will join ContextLogic&#8217;s Board upon closing, with Goldthorpe serving as Chairman. Goldthorpe leads BC Partners Credit, and Ward is a principal at BC Partners.
Price Action: LOGC shares are trading higher by 16.30% at $8.39 at the last check on Tuesday.

Despite promising developments—including a potential ADA ETF and a major XRP Ledger upgrade—sentiment remains weak.
What Happened: Cardano co-founder Charles Hoskinson took to <a href="https://x.com/IOHK_Charles/status/1894225093888545219">X</a>, venting frustration over the market's seemingly irrational sell-off. He noted that macro conditions, liquidity, and narratives all favor a bull run, yet investors are panic selling instead.
Hoskinson likened the market's behavior to an "impatient child throwing a fit right before getting exactly what it wants" and added, &#8220;Crypto never ceases to amaze.&#8221;

Another trader, CryptoBusy, <a href="https://x.com/CryptoBusy/status/1894294847340630417">pointed</a> out that Cardano is struggling to hold its $0.50 support. If lost, ADA could drop to $0.618, an area with multiple historical touchpoints.
More Crypto Online <a href="https://x.com/Morecryptoonl/status/1894440525626818784">maintained</a> a bullish long-term outlook for XRP but cautioned that a break below $1.95 could lead to a deeper correction toward $1.20.
Statistics: The SEC has scheduled a closed-door meeting on Feb. 27, sparking speculation about potential XRP ETF approval this week. While the agenda remains undisclosed, the crypto community is watching closely.
CoinShares' latest <a href="https://blog.coinshares.com/volume-222-digital-asset-fund-flows-weekly-report-adc1e9725e8a">report</a> shows XRP leading all altcoins with $38.3 million in inflows last week, bringing year-to-date inflows to $200 million—third only to Bitcoin and Ethereum.  
Polymarket <a href="https://polymarket.com/">odds</a> for a Cardano ETF approval in 2025 spiked to 65% (up from 52%), while XRP ETF approval odds slipped to 70% (down from 81%) since Feb. 21.

The approval comes on the heels of the SEC acknowledging the XRP, Dogecoin and Hedera ETF applications in recent days.
Austin King, industry expert, <a href="https://x.com/0xASK/status/1894415801060593878">flagged</a> XRP Ledger's biggest upgrade since 2013, dubbed Native Programmability. It is to expand XRP's capabilities and unlocks new activity on the network.
