This projection outperforms the consensus estimate of $194.8 million provided by analysts polled by FactSet.
Furthermore, Myriad Genetics anticipates a per-share loss of 35 cents to 36 cents for the quarter, showing significant improvement compared to the 52-cent loss reported a year ago. However, analysts polled by FactSet have forecasted a narrower loss of 21 cents per share.
