Sanghera on share price growth and Roche at JPM17 Jan 2026 10:35
It's been a tough five years in the public domain, but… this conference feels like the green shoots of recovery are coming back," he said. "The only thing I'll be disappointed about is the share price is going to go up just as I leave. But I'll take some credit for that."
His final message emphasized the distinctiveness of Oxford Nanopore's approach, both in light of current competitors and expected new high throughput sequencer offerings to come from Roche and Element Biosciences: "They're all a form of sequencing-by-synthesis. They take that beautiful high definition, all those [modifications], all that biology, and completely pummel it to a black and white picture. So you get your SNPs and your SNVs, and that's it ... We're clearly differentiated and we wish to remain like that."
